Case Reports

Transfemoral transcatheter aortic valve replacement with a self-expanding valve for severe aortic regurgitation in a patient with left ventricular assist device.

Aortic insufficiency following left ventricular assist device implantation (LVAD) has been reported in up to 40% of patients and is associated with a worse prognosis. We describe the case of a successful transfemoral transcatheter aortic valve replacement with a self-expanding bioprosthesis for aortic insufficiency following destination LVAD implantation.
