Imaging findings

CT images show a transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) stent-valve successfully deployed retrogradely directly inside a pre-existing, failing bioprosthetic aortic valve in an 86-year-old patient.

Key takeaways

Valve-in-valve TAVR is a minimally invasive treatment option for patients with failing bioprosthetic aortic valves who are high risk for repeat open-heart surgery, allowing successful deployment of a new transcatheter valve within the surgical valve framework.
