ABSTRACT
This report discusses a rare case of delayed migration of a Sapien 3 Ultra Resilia (S3UR) valve following transcatheter aortic valve implantation. An 81-year-old Japanese woman had a borderline aortic annular size of 20-23 mm according to the manufacturer's size chart. We chose to implant a smaller S3UR of 20 mm with an 80/20 depth ratio to allow for a second intervention, ensuring good hemodynamics and minimizing paravalvular leak. The patient initially had a favorable outcome despite an accidental 50/50 depth ratio during implantation. On postoperative day 3, the S3UR migrated into the left ventricular outflow tract. Emergency surgical aortic valve replacement was performed to retrieve the migrated valve. Use of the S3UR has led to a growing preference for smaller valve sizes. However, the risk of migration should be recognized. When an accidental 50/50 depth ratio implantation is encountered, post-dilation or second valve implantation should be performed immediately.
