    Author: Yuan SM, Shinfeld A, Raanani E.
    Journal: Interact Cardiovasc Thorac Surg; 2008 Dec; 7(6):1131-3. PubMed ID: 18753152.
    Abstract:
    A critically ill patient had a major mitral paravalvular leak, failed device closure of the leak, and severe hemolytic anemia after a third mitral valve replacement. Echocardiography showed the Amplatzer occluder device completely displaced and swirled in the left atrial cavity. His condition was greatly improved after a fourth mitral valve replacement.
