Post-dilating transcatheter heart valves.
In this issue of JACC: Cardiovascular Interventions, Nombella-Franco and the Quebec Heart and Lung Institute (1) report their experience with balloon post-dilation in patients with residual paravalvular aortic regurgitation after transcatheter heart valve (THV) implantation. Paravalvular regurgitation grade 2 was documented by transesophageal echocardiography in approximately one-third of their...
متن کاملTranscatheter valve-in-valve implantation for failed bioprosthetic heart valves.
BACKGROUND The majority of prosthetic heart valves currently implanted are tissue valves that can be expected to degenerate with time and eventually fail. Repeat cardiac surgery to replace these valves is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Transcatheter heart valve implantation within a failed bioprosthesis, a "valve-in-valve" procedure, may offer a less invasive alternative. ...
متن کاملTranscatheter aortic valve replacement using the Edwards SAPIEN transcatheter heart valves.
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement has a place in the therapy for valvular aortic stenosis in a selected population of patients with increased risk for standard aortic valve replacement. The SAPIEN family of balloon-expandable transcatheter heart valves is the prototype that initiated this therapy and has undergone rapid development and evolution. The SAPIEN system has taught cardiologists ...

متن کاملRepeat transcatheter aortic valve implantation using a latest generation balloon-expandable device for treatment of failing transcatheter heart valves
BACKGROUND Paravalvular leakage (PVL) is a known complication of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) and is associated with poor outcome. Besides balloon-post-dilatation, valve-in-valve (ViV) procedures can be taken into consideration to control this complication. Herein we present initial experience with use of the latest generation balloon-expandable Edwards Sapien 3® (S3) transcat...
