Abstract An 82-year-old patient with severe aortic valve stenosis and high risk for conventional surgery due to chronic renal dysfunction and restrictive lung disease underwent transfemoral transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) using a self-expanding Navitor® prosthesis (Abbott). Immediately after implantation, valve dysfunction was observed, characterized by inversion of the right coronary leaflet, resulting in severe acute prosthetic regurgitation and hemodynamic instability. Therefore, a 21.5 mm balloon-expandable Myval® prosthesis was also implanted (TAV-in-TAV). The critical condition was resolved with immediate hemodynamic […]
