چکیده

An inverted Edwards SAPIEN 23 mm valve was implanted in a 14-year-old patient with Ebstein's anomaly who received a Medtronic Mosaic 25 mm valve 8 years earlier and presented with significant progressive symptoms related to severe valvular regurgitation and moderate stenosis. The procedure was performed via the femoral vein using the RetroFlex 3 system and predilatation of the tricuspid valve, under transesophageal echocardiographic guidance. The patient had an immediate drop in right atrial and trans-tricuspid pressures with mild regurgitation, and had stable results on short-term follow-up.

Valve-in-valve in the tricuspid position for a stenosed bioprosthesis.

The strategy of transcatheter valve-in-valve implantation into failing mitral and aortic bioprosthetic valves is a documented approach. It allows one to avoid performing a high-risk repeat cardiac surgery in elderly patients with multiple comorbidities. Tricuspid valve-in-valve implantation has been documented only a few times in the literature. We report the case of a 65-year-old woman with a ...
