Background and Aims Valve-in-valve (VIV) TAVR has emerged as a viable alternative for patients with failing surgical bioprosthetic valves.Valve-in-valve (VIV) TAVR has emerged as a viable alternative for patients with failing surgical bioprosthetic valves. We sought to assess the safety and efficacy of VIV TAVR with the Edwards SAPIEN XT transcatheter heart valve (THV) in patients with failed surgical bioprosthetic valves at high risk with reoperation.We sought to assess the safety and efficacy of VIV TAVR with the Edwards SAPIEN XT transcatheter heart valve (THV) in patients with failed surgical bioprosthetic valves at high risk with reoperation.
Methods Inclusion criteria:Inclusion criteria: –Symptomatic severe stenosis or regurgitation of a surgical aortic tissue valve –High-risk for re-operation (estimated surgical mortality or major morbidity ≥ 50%) –Suitable for 23mm or 26mm SAPIEN XT THV Exclusion criteria:Exclusion criteria: –Surgical valve labeled size < 21mm –Prosthetic valve in another position Angiogram, CT, Echo images and clinical data were screened on a weekly web conference callAngiogram, CT, Echo images and clinical data were screened on a weekly web conference call

Conclusions VIV TAVR SAPIEN XT THV – 1 Year Excellent freedom from death, stroke, and major adverse events.Excellent freedom from death, stroke, and major adverse events. Significant clinical benefit in terms of symptoms, functional status, 6min walk test and QOL.Significant clinical benefit in terms of symptoms, functional status, 6min walk test and QOL. Hemodynamic improvement and LVMi regression, increase in LVEF, decrease in MR / TR and low rates of AR.Hemodynamic improvement and LVMi regression, increase in LVEF, decrease in MR / TR and low rates of AR. Data raises important considerations regarding SAVR strategy in favor of implanting large surgical valves in the index surgery.Data raises important considerations regarding SAVR strategy in favor of implanting large surgical valves in the index surgery.
Clinical Implication Valve-in-Valve TAVR using SAPIEN XT is a beneficial therapeutic alternative to reoperation in patients with failed aortic bioprostheses.
