Most PVLs remain clinically silent; however, some may require reoperation due to symptomatic PVL. Surgical closure of PVL remains the most common therapy for these defects; however, redo surgery has some disadvantages, including a high recurrence rate as well as high morbidity and mortality rates. Percutaneous closure of PVLs has emerged as an alternative to surgical closure. A 42-yearold male patient underwent a second percutaneous closure due to residual mitral paravalvular leak. During the procedure, the closure device embolized in the descending aorta. The device was captured with a snare and successfully retrieved, and then PVL was successfully occluded with another device.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessEchocardiographyTransesophagealHeart Valve ProsthesisMitral ValveProsthesis FailureA second percutaneous closure due to residual mitral paravalvular leak and successful treatment of device embolizationA second percutaneous closure due to residual mitral paravalvular leak and successful treatment of device embolizationArticle415445U91WOS:0004218967000132-s2.0-848812314942391701210.5543/tkda.2013.48447Q3N/A
