Transcatheter Aortic Valve-in-Valve (Medtronic CoreValve)
▶ Watch on YouTube — age-restricted, cannot embed here
Imaging findings
A previously placed bioprosthetic valve is present. On subsequent imaging, additional material is observed, representing a Medtronic CoreValve prosthesis deployed within the failing bioprosthetic valve. Intra-procedural images clearly depict the placement of the CoreValve prosthesis.
Key takeaways
The transcatheter aortic valve-in-valve procedure involves placing a new transcatheter valve (e.g., Medtronic CoreValve) within a previously implanted, failing bioprosthetic valve. Radiologists should be familiar with the appearance of these devices and their components on imaging, recognizing it as an intended post-procedural finding for treating structural valve degeneration.
