Quite often the iatrogenic atrial septal defect created after percutaneous transcatheter mitral valve replacement procedures is closed with an atrial septal occluder device thus precluding further transseptal interventions if required. In this case report, we describe a patient who previously underwent a valve-in-valve transcatheter mitral valve replacement and iatrogenic atrial septal defect closure with an Amplatzer device, who developed severe prosthetic mitral valve stenosis. This patient required a second percutaneous valve-in-valve in-valve procedure with a transseptal puncture in the presence of an atrial septal occluder device.
