ABSTRACT
A 55-year-old male with a history of severe organic mitral regurgitation treated with surgical mitral valve (MV) repair was referred for a transcatheter MV replacement due to recurrent regurgitation. After the release of the first transcatheter MV, a severe paravalvular leak coming from the lateral side was observed. To promptly tackle this issue, a second valve with further postdilation was successfully implanted and the paravalvular leak disappeared. This case highlights the feasibility of implanting a second valve in case of severe paravalvular leaks after MV-in-ring procedures due to device malapposition.
