Should high risk patients with concomitant severe aortic stenosis and mitral valve disease undergo double valve surgery in the TAVR era?

open access: yesJournal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2017
Background Significant mitral regurgitation in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is associated with increased mortality. The aim of this study is to determine if surgical correction of both aortic and mitral valves in high

Degenerated TAVR Within Degenerated Surgical Bioprosthetic Valve Treated With Second TAVR

open access: yesJACC: Case Reports, 2020
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement within a degenerated surgical bioprosthetic aortic valve is increasing in frequency. We present a rare case of a patient requiring a second TAVR placed within a previous placed degenerated transcatheter aortic valve,

Surgical aortic-valve replacement with a transcatheter implant [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 2011
We describe a bailout procedure when surgical aortic-valve replacement was not possible due to severe calcification of the ascending aorta and the root and a very small annulus. A 21-mm CoreValve Revalving prosthesis was inserted via the aortotomy in the presence of a mitral prosthesis.
