Percutaneous Paravalvular Leak Closure [PDF]

Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2011
Symptomatic paravalvular leak (PVL) complicates up to 12 % of surgical valve replacements. When patients present with congestive heart failure and/or haemolysis, reoperation for repeat valve replacement may be undertaken, but presents greater risk and lower likelihood of success than the initial operation.

Paravalvular Leak: A Systemic Review

Current Cardiology Reviews, 2022
Background: Paravalvular Leak (PVL) refers to the retrograde flow of blood in the space between an implanted cardiac valve and native tissue. These are unfortunately but luckily relatively uncommon complications of prosthetic valve replacement that, especially when moderate or severe, have important clinical consequences.

Early Multicenter Outcomes of Dedicated Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement for Left Ventricular Assist Device-Associated Pure Aortic Regurgitation. [PDF]

Artif Organs
LVAD‐associated aortic regurgitation impairs circulatory support, with limited surgical and off‐label options. In a multicenter registry (n = 30), the AR‐dedicated JenaValve Trilogy TAVR eliminated AR, achieving 96.7% (29/30) technical success and 93.3% (28/30) device success (VARC‐3), with 3.3% (1/30) 30‐day mortality.

First Experience Using a Nonfenestrated Cardioform Septal Occluder for Closure of Giant Mitral Paravalvular Leak

JACC: Case Reports, 2020
A variety of fenestrated vascular plugs have been used to seal paravalvular leaks with meaningful success; however, incomplete closure and refractory hemolysis remains a common problem.

“Contrecoup” Paravalvular Leak Closure

International Journal of Angiology, 2018
AbstractParavalvular aortic regurgitation affects some patients after surgically implanted prosthesis. The number of patients affected is likely to increase with increased utilization of nonsurgical valve replacement techniques. These patients are at increased risk of persistent clinical symptoms often requiring repair. Clinical and procedural outcomes

Management of paravalvular leaks [PDF]

Cor et Vasa, 2012
AbstractParavalvular leaks occur in 5–17% of patients who underwent aortic or mitral valve implantation. The patients who have a paravalvular leak mostly present with heart failure, hemolytic anaemie, or both.The gold standard for treatment of severe symptomatic paravalvular leaks is reoperation, which is, nevertheless, associated with increased ...
