Abstract
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has become the standard option for high risk patients with bioprosthetic valve degeneration. However, percutaneous coronary interventions after TAVR may be challenging as the manipulation and engagement of the guiding catheters is much more limited and difficult, due to the superimposition of the metallic frame of the TAVR valve upon the bioprosthetic cage. We describe a case of percutaneous coronary intervention in a patient with history of transcatheter aortic valve implantation after bioprosthetic valve degeneration and we describe a new method for accessing coronary arteries in cases of TAVR-in-surgical aortic valve replacement with a high-frame TAVR with a supra-annular leaflet position, by using the route outside the frame. 〈Learning objective: We describe a method for accessing coronary arteries in cases of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI)-in-surgical aortic valve replacement with a high-frame TAVI with a supraannular leaflet position, by using the route outside the frame.〉.
