Percutaneous closure of a large aortic paravalvular leak using two duct occluder devices.

ABSTRACT: A 21-year-old male presented with severe aortic paravalvular leak. He had undergone three cardiac surgeries and also had chronic kidney disease. It was decided for a trans-catheter closure owing to the risks of a fourth surgery and co-morbidity. The device was sized based on angiogram, balloon sizing and two dimensional transesophageal echo. There was significant residual leak after deployment of first device. Hence the defect was re-crossed and two duct occluder devices were positioned across the leak from two arterial access. After confirming position and satisfactory reduction in paravalvular leak, the devices were released in tandem. There was near abolition of leak. The patient is asymptomatic at three months follow up. Larger paravalvular leaks are better addressed with two devices of smaller size rather than a single large device. Technical considerations while deploying multiple devices are discussed.

Combined Retrograde/Antegrade Approach to Transcatheter Closure of an Aortic Paravalvular Leak.

Project description:New interventional techniques have made transcatheter closure of aortic paravalvular leaks a viable therapeutic option to treat the sequelae of these defects, including congestive heart failure and hemolysis. We report the transcatheter closure of an aortic paravalvular leak via a combined retrograde/antegrade approach. This was necessary because of difficulty in crossing the defect with a sheath from the retrograde approach. This technique might be useful in application to other difficult structural heart interventions. To our knowledge, this is the first report of a treated paravalvular leak around a Mitroflow(®) Aortic Pericardial Heart Valve.

Percutaneous Closure of Mitral Paravalvular Leak: Long-Term Results in a Single-Center Experience.

Project description:BackgroundParavalvular leak occurs in 5-17% of patients following surgical valve replacement, more often in mitral position. The prognosis without treatment is poor. Percutaneous device closure represents an alternative to repeat surgery. The objective of this work is to evaluate the medium and long-term results in the percutaneous closure of PVL in mitral prosthesis.MethodsThis observational study is based on a retrospective registry including consecutive mitral PVL cases undergoing percutaneous closure at a single tertiary-care center from April 2010 to December 2020. The safety and efficacy results of the procedure, at 90 days and in the long term, were analyzed. Also, predictors of procedure failure and long-term events were identified.ResultsA total of 128 consecutive mitral paravalvular leak closure procedures were included. Technical success was achieved in 115 (89.8%) procedures. The presence of multiple PVLs was the sole factor that independently predicted procedural failure. Median follow-up of our sample was 41.8 months (mean 47.7 ± 35.7 months). Underlying hemolytic anemia as the indication for PVL closure, a recent admission for decompensated HF, and lack of improvement in functional class emerged as consistent predictors of MACE and death during long-term follow-up, while lack of procedural success during the first PVL procedure and chronic kidney disease were also associated with MACE during follow-up.ConclusionsPercutaneous mitral PVL closure displayed high technical and procedural success rates, with an acceptable safety profile, in a high-risk population. Percutaneous mitral PVL closure achieved an improvement in short- and long-term functional class and a reduction of hemolysis in the vast majority of patients. In addition, long-term survival in our study was good, in particular for patients undergoing successful PVL closure procedures.

Percutaneous Closure of Paravalvular Regurgitation After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation: A Systematic Review.

Project description:Paravalvular regurgitation (PVR) remains one of the drawbacks of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). Details of percutaneous closure (PCC) of PVR after TAVI remain obscure. We aimed to explore the patient characteristics, procedural details, closure devices used, and outcomes of PCC after TAVI. A systematic search of the MEDLINE/PubMed and Embase databases from January 2002 to September 2015 was conducted. Reports considered to include same patient were excluded and only the studies with largest cohorts were included. A total of 14 studies including 58 patients (61 cases) were included in the study. A balloon-expandable (BE) valve was used more frequently compared with a self-expandable (SE) valve (72.6% vs 27.4%, respectively). The mean success rate was 86.9% (100% and 77.8%, respectively; P = 0.097). The median number of closure devices used was 1 (range, 1-4) and did not differ between SE and BE valves (P = 0.71). Mean time from index procedure to PCC did not differ between SE and BE valves (295 ± 380 days vs 379 ± 353 days; P = 0.71). Seven patients had history of valve-in-valve and 6 patients had procedural success. Among the patients with available follow-up data (94.8%), there were 15 deaths (27.3%). Percutaneous closure of PVR after TAVI had a high success rate in selected patients in both BE and SE valves. The success rate, timing, and number of closure devices were similar between BE and SE valves. However, prognosis remains fairly poor.

Percutaneous closure of aortic pseudoaneurysm in a young female with atrial septal occluder.

Project description:This case report represents a novel technique for the treatment of a pseudoaneurysm of the aorta. Pseudoaneurysm of the aorta has been reported in patients post heart surgery. This case report is about a patient who had a pseudoaneurysm most probably following tuberculosis. Traditionally, the treatment of choice is surgical correction; however, in the current era, there are case reports describing the use of either stent grafts or Amplatzer occluders for occlusion of the pseudoaneurysm in high-risk surgical cases. We performed successful closure of the aortic pseudoaneurysm using atrial septal occluder. <Learning objective: Tuberculous arteritis can result in pseudoaneurysm rarely. Our patient had a large aneurysm compressing adjoining vital structures and was very high surgical risk case. This is the first case report of closure of tuberculous pseudoaneurysm by using atrial septal occluder in a young patient. In this case we have demonstrated that large pseudoaneurysms with narrow neck can be closed very safely using atrial septal occluder with immediate symptom relief and thrombosis of pseudoaneurysm at follow-up of three months.>.

Management of severe haemolytic anaemia due to residual small mitral paravalvular leak post-percutaneous closure: a case report.

Project description:BackgroundHaemolytic anaemia is a complication of paravalvular leak (PVL). The correlation between the size of the leak and the severity of haemolysis is unclear. Small leaks can cause severe haemolysis, whereas significant leaks may cause no haemolysis.Case summaryWe report the case of a 40-year-old male who underwent mechanical mitral and aortic valve replacement 20 years ago. In the last 3 years, the procedure was repeated three times due to infective endocarditis. He presented with severe shortness of breath. A transoesophageal echocardiogram with three-dimensional surgical view showed that both discs of the mechanical mitral valve opened sufficiently but a severe PVL had occurred at the 9-12 o'clock position. The location of the mitral valve was abnormal, the sewing ring was inserted high at the mid-interatrial septum. The mechanical aortic valve functioned well. Closure of the transcutaneous PVL was accomplished with two percutaneously implanted devices, leaving a small leak in between. After closure, he developed haemolytic anaemia (haemoglobin: 6 g/dL, lactate dehydrogenase: 1896 units/L, reticulocyte count: 4.6%). He then received 16 units of packed red blood cells. He developed acute kidney injury and was started on haemodialysis. We then installed two additional devices to completely close the mild residual leak and another device to resolve the bidirectional transseptal defect. After 2 days, his renal function returned to normal and anaemia improved (haemoglobin: 9.1 g/dL).DiscussionMild residual paravalvular leak can cause severe haemolytic anaemia that is correctable via percutaneous closure of the leak.
