Transcatheter mitral valve implantation: Implications of interventional technique and 3D echocardiography for complex valve-in-valve paravalvular leak.
Transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) has emerged as a feasible alternative to surgical reoperation in failed bioprostheses and rings. Residual mitral regurgitation following TMVR can present as a valve-in-valve paravalvular leak (PVL) and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Current therapies for valve-in-valve PVL are limited. We present a case of a symptomatic patient with severe valve-in-valve PVL after TMVR for a previous surgical bioprosthesis leak, who then underwent a second TMVR as a valve-in-valve-in-valve implantation with a 29 mm Edwards® SAPIEN 3 valve via transseptal approach using three-dimensional (3D) echocardiography. This unique case highlights the complexity of this clinical entity and recognizes 3D transesophageal echocardiography as a valuable tool to guide valve-in-valve PVL closures.
