A Rare Case of Radiation-Associated Aortic and Mitral Valve Stenosis Treated With Transcatheter Valve Replacements
Radiation therapy is the standard of care for achieving cure for many thoracic malignancies, but it can result in long-term cardiovascular sequelae such as valve disease. We describe a rare case of severe aortic and mitral stenosis due to prior radiation therapy for giant cell tumor treated successf...

Sumario: | Radiation therapy is the standard of care for achieving cure for many thoracic malignancies, but it can result in long-term cardiovascular sequelae such as valve disease. We describe a rare case of severe aortic and mitral stenosis due to prior radiation therapy for giant cell tumor treated successfully with percutaneous aortic and off-label mitral valve replacements.
