  • Title: Valve-in-valve using an Edwards Sapien XT into a JenaValve in a patient with a low originating left coronary artery and a heavily calcified aorta.
    Author: Fujita B, Scholtz S, Ensminger S.
    Journal: Catheter Cardiovasc Interv; 2016 Apr; 87(5):989-92. PubMed ID: 26268711.
    Abstract:
    Coronary obstruction during transcatheter aortic valve implantation is a potentially life-threatening complication. Most of the widely used transcatheter heart valves require a certain distance between the basal aortic annular plane and the origins of the coronary arteries. We report the case of a successful valve-in-valve procedure with an Edwards SAPIEN XT valve into a JenaValve as a bail-out procedure in a patient with a low originating left coronary artery and a heavily calcified aorta.
