Paravalvular Leak Echo Imaging before and during the Percutaneous Procedure

Percutaneous device closure has become a valuable alternative to surgery in the management of paravalvular leaks. Consequently, imaging in these patients is currently not only meant to verify the hemodynamic significance of the lesion but also to assess the feasibility of transcatheter treatment. We...

description Percutaneous device closure has become a valuable alternative to surgery in the management of paravalvular leaks. Consequently, imaging in these patients is currently not only meant to verify the hemodynamic significance of the lesion but also to assess the feasibility of transcatheter treatment. We present a methodology of comprehensive echocardiography assessment that allows for the selection of patients and plans the intervention. Next, procedure-oriented steps of echocardiography imaging, which are essential for eventual success, are reviewed.
