Abstract

An 82-year-old woman with severe aortic valve stenosis (AS) and a significant proximal right coronary artery (RCA) stenosis presented with decompensated heart failure and acute kidney injury. She was treated with intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)-guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and trans-oesophageal echocardiography (TOE)-guided transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR).
