Edwards SAPIEN 3 Transcatheter Heart Valve Implantation in a Native Bicuspid Aortic Regurgitation.

ABSTRACT

Transcatheter aortic valve replacement over the last few years has revolutionized the way severe aortic stenosis patients are being managed [1-4]. Randomized clinical trials commonly excluded bicuspid aortic valves and pure native severe aortic regurgitation [2,4]. We present a case with severe acute aortic regurgitation complicated by refractory pulmonary oedema successfully managed by transfemoral transcatheter aortic valve replacement using a Sapien 3 valve.
