ABSTRACT Valve‐in‐valve (ViV) Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has emerged as a valid treatment option in symptomatic patients with failed aortic bioprosthetic valves, most especially in those with intermediate, high or prohibitive risk of surgery. Due to the unique design of stentless bioprosthetic valves with absence of visible posts and
