SevereValvularRegurgitation:AnUnexpectedComplication DuringTransapicalAorticValveImplantationTreatedSuccessfully withthe"Valve-in-Valve"Procedure
2012
Severe symptomatic aortic stenosis (AS) in a multimorbid 77 year old female was treated with transapical aortic valve implantation with a 23 mm Edwards Sapien valve. Severe valvular regurgitation following implantation, probably due to structural valve failure, was treated successfully with a second valve-invalve implantation. During a follow-up time of 2,5 years no further problems occurred.
