Bioprosthetic Mitral Transcatheter Transapical Valve-in-Valve Implantation for Mitral Stenosis in an End-Stage Renal Disease Patient

J Card Surg. 2015 Sep;30(9):697-700. doi: 10.1111/jocs.12604. Epub 2015 Jul 31.

Abstract

Transcatheter mitral valve-in-valve implantation (TMVIV) is an option for patients with mitral prosthetic valve dysfunction who are at high risk for surgical valve replacement. Efficacy and safety of TMVIV is at its infancy. We report a high-risk symptomatic dialysis-dependent end-stage renal disease patient with severe bioprosthetic mitral valve stenosis who had TMVIV performed successfully.
