“…Our search strategy included the use of the terms “infective endocarditis or infectious endocarditis” and “transcatheter mitral valve repair, percutaneous mitral valve repair, MitraClip, or PASCAL.” A manual search for these topics within case reports at major cardiology meetings was also performed until February 2023. A total of 23 publications describing 26 cases of IE following TEER treatment for severe MR were identified, 7–29 in addition to our one case. Our local ethics committee approved this case report and systematic review.…”

Transcatheter edge‐to‐edge repair (TEER) is used extensively in patients with symptomatic severe mitral regurgitation and high surgical risk. While prosthetic valve endocarditis is well documented, infective endocarditis (IE) after TEER is a rare occurrence. To date, no study has been conducted on this complication. We report the case of an 85‐year‐old man who developed IE 3 months after undergoing TEER, and we systematically review 26 previously published cases of this complication. Our review findings indicate that discussion within the heart team is essential for the decision‐making process and treatment strategy determination.
