Percutaneous closure of mitral paravalvular leak.
Paravalvular leak (PVL) is a complication observed in patients after prosthetic valve replacement. The incidence of PVL is estimated as 2-3%. The cause of PVL may be paravalvular infection, suture continuity disruption, damage of tissues around the annulus or limitation of disc mobility by thrombus or vegetation. The preferable method of treatment of PVL is surgery. Recently, percutaneous closu...

Successful closure may offer relief from symptoms of heart failure and hemolysis, but surgical closure is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Alternative transcatheter closure techniques are being developed. We present a patient who was succes...

متن کاملBioprosthetic leaflet erosion after percutaneous mitral paravalvular leak closure.
Davis nline ranscatheter closure of prosthetic paravalvular eaks is increasingly performed at experienced enters (1–3). The lack of devices dedicated to aravalvular leak closure has not deterred the ff-label use of various occluder devices. These mages illustrate the potential complexity of ranscatheter paravalvular leak repair with the eed for additional occluder placement, and the evelopment ...
