The wide adoption of the MitraClip procedure in clinical practice inevitably causes increases in surgical intervention demand for patients following failed MitraClip implantation. Current reports about surgical intervention after failed MitraClip procedure focused on open-heart surgery. In this case, totally thoracoscopic third-time redo mitral valve replacement was successfully performed for a high-risk patient, following aortic valve replacement and a failed MitraClip procedure.
