Abstract
This case describes a case of severe functional mitral regurgitation in which there appeared to be two jets, one central and one at the posteromedial commissure. However, with one central clip, the overall MR was markedly reduced with 1+. This case highlights the strategy of using a central clip first in patients with functional MR and reassessing residual MR after that.
