Percutaneous Treatment of a Circumflex Artery Occlusion After Minimally Invasive Barlow Disease Mitral Valve Repair

Injury of the circumflex artery is an uncommon but dangerous complication during mitral valve surgery. We report the case of a patient who presented an occlusion of the circumflex artery after a minimally invasive mitral valve repair, which was treated with angioplasty in the immediate post-operativ...
