  • Title: First transcatheter valve-in-valve implantation in an apicoaortic conduit.
    Author: Perlman GY, Ye J, Blanke P, Webb JG.
    Journal: Catheter Cardiovasc Interv; 2018 Jun; 91(7):E86-E89. PubMed ID: 28296021.
    Abstract:
    Apicoaortic conduit surgery is an option for treating severe aortic stenosis. The implanted conduit valve may eventually fail and require replacement; this is usually performed by repeat surgery. Treating the conduit valve with a standard transcatheter heart valve is an option that has become feasible in recent years. We describe a case of a failed 23 mm CE bioprosthesis that was successfully treated with a 23 mm Sapien XT valve as a valve-in-valve procedure. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
