Sutureless Aortic Valve Replacement in a Patient with Transfemoral Aortic Valve Replacement and Left Ventricular Hypertrophy

Background Transarterial valve intervention (TAVI) is valuable in high-risk patients, however, in case of left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction, conventional surgery, including partial myectomy, is indicated. Case Description An 84-year-old female patient presented with increasing fatigu...

description Background Transarterial valve intervention (TAVI) is valuable in high-risk patients, however, in case of left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction, conventional surgery, including partial myectomy, is indicated. Case Description An 84-year-old female patient presented with increasing fatigue after TAVI in 2012, demonstrated a narrowed LVOT. Conventional surgery was performed, including removal of the transcathether valve, partial septal myectomy, and implantation of a sutureless valve. The postoperative course was uncomplicated. Conclusion Aortic valve stenosis combined with severe left-ventricular hypertrophy is not ideal for TAVI. Conventional surgery, performing partial septal myectomy and implantation of sutureless aortic prosthesis, seems more appropriate.
