Abstract
We report the case of a 78-year-old woman admitted for cardiogenic shock related to
acute and early failure (severe aortic regurgitation) of a Perceval sutureless aortic
bioprosthesis (Sorin Group, Saluggia, Italy). Clinical stability was achieved using
rescue transfemoral transcatheter aortic valve-in-valve implantation with an Edwards
SAPIEN 3 prosthesis (Edwards Lifesciences, Irvine, CA). To our knowledge, we report
herein the first case of successful valve-in-valve implantation using a SAPIEN 3 transcatheter
heart valve in a sutureless bioprosthetic aortic valve with acute and early deterioration.
Résumé
Nous rapportons le cas d’une femme de 78 ans admise pour un choc cardiogénique lié
à l’échec rapide et précoce (régurgitation aortique grave) d’une bioprothèse valvulaire
aortique sans suture Perceval (Sorin Group, Saluggia, Italie). L’implantation d'une
valve aortique de sauvetage dite valve-in-valve par cathéter par voie transfémorale au moyen de la prothèse Edwards SAPIEN 3 (Edwards
Lifesciences, Irvine, CA) a permis d’atteindre une stabilité clinique. À notre connaissance,
il s’agit ici de la première implantation dite valve-in-valve réussie d’une valve cardiaque percutanée ou par cathéter SAPIEN 3 dans une bioprothèse
valvulaire aortique sans suture ayant subi une détérioration rapide et précoce.
