Undeliverable Sapien 3 prosthesis in transaortic transcatheter aortic valve implantation

In transaortic (TAo) trasncatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI), direct transmission of forces to the stenotic aortic valve is possible. Therefore, the need of balloon aortic valvoplasty in TAo-TAVI may be very limited regarding the deliverability of TAVI prosthesis. However, if the TAVI prosthe...

Sumario:In transaortic (TAo) trasncatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI), direct transmission of forces to the stenotic aortic valve is possible. Therefore, the need of balloon aortic valvoplasty in TAo-TAVI may be very limited regarding the deliverability of TAVI prosthesis. However, if the TAVI prosthesis becomes undeliverable, it becomes seriously problematic. Herein, we present a case of TAo-TAVI in which the TAVI prosthesis was undeliverable, and it was forcefully pushed together with the introducer system into the aortic valve as a bailout technique.
