Abstract
Single leaflet device attachment (SLDA) after mitral transcatheter valve edge‐to‐edge repair (M‐TEER) has been reported in up to 5% of patients. However, complete embolization of the M‐TEER device is exceedingly rare. Device retrievals in all previously reported cases were completed by vascular surgery cut down at the end. In this case, we are presenting a complete percutaneous retrieval of M‐TEER device from the right subclavian artery, which indicates the importance of procedural planning and appropriate equipment selection.
