Abstract
#Degeneration of #bioprosthesis may occur in elderly and #frailpatients
with an extremely high risk for redo #cardiacsurgery. Transcatheter
valve-in-valve procedures represent a valuable treatment option in
high-risk patients [1,2]. However incidental findings may contraindicate
the
transcatheter procedure. We describe the original case of a patient who
was scheduled for #transapicalmitralvalve-in-valve, but due to a left a
trial mass underwent mini-invasive surgery with successful direct mitral
valve-in-valve delivery and excision of the mass.
