Project description:Coronary obstruction is an uncommon and severe complication after a transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), that occurs during the procedure in the vast majority of patients. In the present case even in the absence of classic risk factors, an acute coronary syndrome occurred one day after TAVR. Selective angiography revealed a severe left main ostium obstruction by the bulky native leaflet calcification. This is the first case of delayed presentation of coronary obstruction with a transfemoral balloon-expandable valve using the Inovare bioprosthesis (Braile Biomedica, Brazil). In addition, after drug-eluting stent placement in the left main coronary, intravascular ultrasound revealed severe stent underexpansion, so that a second layer of a bare-metal stent and high-pressure balloon post-dilatation was necessary to improve the final result. The patient was discharged after 7 days, and at the 6-month follow-up remained asymptomatic. <Learning objective: This case illustrates an unusual cause of an acute coronary syndrome 24 h after a transcatheter aortic valve replacement. This is the first report of this severe complication with delayed presentation following the balloon-expandable Inovare bioprosthesis. Even in the absence of classic risk factors this complication may occur, and percutaneous coronary intervention is feasible in the vast majority of cases, often requiring various percutaneous techniques and intravascular image to improve outcomes.>.

Project description:ObjectiveIn this study we aimed to evaluate risk of coronary obstruction during transcatheter aortic valve replacement and develop improved criteria based on computational modeling.MethodsPatient specific 3-dimensional models were constructed and validated for 28 patients out of 600 patients who were flagged as high risk for coronary obstruction (defined as meeting coronary ostium height < 14 mm and/or sinus of Valsalva diameter [SOVd] < 30 mm). The models consisted finite element analysis to predict the post- transcatheter aortic valve replacement native cusp apposition relative to the coronary ostium and were validated in vitro. The distance from cusp to coronary ostium (DLC) was derived from the 3-dimensional models and indexed with the coronary artery diameter to yield a fractional obstruction measure (DLC/d).ResultsTwenty-two out of 28 high-risk patients successfully underwent transcatheter aortic valve replacement without coronary obstruction and 6 did not. DLC/d between the 2 groups was significantly different (P < .00078), whereas neither coronary ostium height nor SOVd were significantly different (P > .32). A cutoff of DLC/d < 0.7 was predictive with 100% sensitivity and 95.7% specificity. The optimal sensitivity and specificity of coronary ostium height and SOVd in this high-risk group was only 60% and 40%, respectively, for cutoff coronary ostium height of 10 mm and SOVd of 30.5 mm.ConclusionsThree-dimensional modeling has the potential to enable more patients to be safely treated with transcatheter aortic valve replacement who have a low-lying coronary ostium or small SOVd. DLC/d is more predictive of obstruction than coronary ostium height and SOVd.

Project description:BackgroundValve-in-valve transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has emerged as a competent alternative for the treatment of degenerated bioprosthetic valves after surgical aortic valve replacement, or during TAVI procedure as a bailout option. Herein, we report a rare case of a self-expandable Medtronic Evolut R valve into a failing Medtronic CoreValve, with the use of modern pre-TAVI imaging screening, suggesting the proper procedural design steps for so complicated implantations.Case summaryA frail 78-year-old woman with a degenerated Medtronic Core Valve 26 mm bioprosthesis, implanted in 2011 due to severe aortic stenosis, was referred to our hospital due to worsening dyspnoea New York Heart Association III. The screening echocardiography documented severe aortic stenosis, while the classical risk scores were in favour of repeated TAVI (EuroSCORE II 5.67%). Computed tomography measurements and three-dimensional (3D) printing model were of great help for the proper valve selection (Medtronic Evolut R 26 mm), while the use of cerebral protection device (Claret Sentinel) was considered as a necessary part of the procedure. The simultaneous use of fluoroscopy and transoesophageal echocardiogram led to optimal haemodynamic result, confirmed by the discharge echocardiogram, with a significant clinical improvement during the first month follow-up.DiscussionThe main periprocedural concerns remain valve malpositioning, coronary artery obstruction, and high remaining transvalvular gradients. The multimodality pre-TAVI imaging screening may be helpful for precise procedural design. Despite the limited use of 3D models, it is necessary to adopt such tissue-mimicking phantoms to increase the possibility of optimal procedural result.

Project description:ObjectivesThis study aimed to assess the clinical outcome of the bioprosthetic or native aortic scallop intentional laceration to prevent iatrogenic coronary obstruction (BASILICA) technique in a single-center patient cohort considered at high or prohibitive risk of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI)-induced coronary obstruction.MethodsBetween October 2019 and January 2021, a total of 15 consecutive patients (age 81.0 [78.1, 84.4] years; 53.3% female; EuroSCORE II 10.6 [6.3, 14.8] %) underwent BASILICA procedure prior to TAVI at our institution. Indications for TAVI were degeneration of stented (n = 12, 80.0%) or stentless (n = 1, 6.7%) bioprosthetic aortic valves, or calcific stenosis of native aortic valves (n = 2, 13.3%), respectively. Individual risk of TAVI-induced coronary obstruction was assessed by pre-procedural computed tomography analysis. Procedural and 30-day outcomes were documented in accordance with Valve Academic Research Consortium (VARC)-2 criteria.ResultsBASILICA was attempted for single left coronary cusp in 12 patients (80.0%), for single right coronary cusp in 2 patients (13.3%), and for both cusps in 1 patient (6.7%), respectively. The procedure was feasible in 13 patients (86.7%) resulting in effective prevention of coronary obstruction, whilst TAVI was performed without prior successful bioprosthetic leaflet laceration in two patients (13.3%). In one of these patients (6.7%), additional chimney stenting immediately after TAVI was performed. No all-cause deaths or strokes were documented after 30 days.ConclusionThe BASILICA technique appears to be a feasible, safe and effective concept to avoid iatrogenic coronary artery obstruction during TAVI in both native and bioprosthetic valves of patients at high or prohibitive risk.

Project description:Coronary obstruction during or after transcatheter aortic valve replacement is a rare and catastrophic sequela that occurs most frequently just after valve implantation. Even rarer is the delayed clinical presentation, in some few patients, of coronary obstruction on the day after self-expandable valve implantation. Here we describe a case of balloon-expandable (not self-expandable) transcatheter aortic valve replacement, followed by partial obstruction of the left main coronary artery on the day after that procedure in a 93-year-old man, despite normal left ventricular contraction just after valve implantation. Visual evaluation of the echocardiogram for left ventricular wall motion was not sufficient, by itself, to achieve early diagnosis of the obstruction. We performed emergency percutaneous coronary intervention. Ninety days after the procedure, the patient was in New York Heart Association functional class I.

Project description:BackgroundDelayed coronary obstruction after transcatheter aortic valve implantation has been reported to occur more commonly after self-expandable aortic valve implantation than balloon-expandable valve.Case summaryAn 86-year-old woman treated by transcatheter self-expandable aortic valve implantation had acute coronary syndrome 3 months after the procedure. Emergent coronary angiography showed decreased blood flow in the left coronary artery. Balloon angioplasty between the valve frame and the left coronary cusp was performed, and her ischaemia resolved. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography showed a commissural post of the supra-annular valve overlying the left coronary cusp, and serial computed tomography showed the valve frame expanding over time. She received coronary bypass grafting using saphenous vein grafts for the left anterior descending and left circumflex arteries. Four months after surgery for the left anterior descending artery, the patient had recurrent chest pain, and computed tomography showed a graft occlusion in the left anterior descending artery. Shortly afterwards, she died of sudden cardiac arrest.DiscussionIn this report, we describe delayed Valsalva obstruction after transcatheter self-expandable aortic valve implantation, which can be detectable by serial computed tomography. The sealing of a coronary cusp by a commissural post of the valve may be one of the causes of delayed coronary ischaemia after transcatheter self-expandable aortic valve implantation.

Project description:Coronary obstruction is a rare but life-threatening complication of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). This article describes the case of a patient with severe aortic valve stenosis treated with TAVI, during which preventive coronary wiring using a pressure wire was performed for coronary protection. After the deployment of the transcatheter heart valve (THV), the values of the fractional flow reserve (FFR) and resting full-cycle ratio (RFR) remarkably decreased, although the findings of transesophageal echocardiography and coronary angiography did not suggest coronary obstruction. Intravascular ultrasound revealed severe stenosis in the left main trunk due to the displacement of the calcified native leaflets. The decrease in the FFR and RFR values after THV deployment led to a diagnosis of partial coronary obstruction, and percutaneous coronary intervention was successfully performed. In patients at a high risk for coronary obstruction, coronary protection with a pressure wire is useful for the diagnosis and prevention of coronary flow deterioration during TAVI. Functional assessment using a pressure wire before and after TAVI may contribute to the accurate diagnosis of coronary obstruction.Learning objectiveAccurate diagnosis of coronary obstruction during transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is important for successful management. In patients at a high risk for coronary obstruction, coronary protection with a pressure wire is useful for the diagnosis and prevention of coronary flow deterioration during TAVI. The remarkable decrease in the fractional flow reserve and resting full-cycle ratio values after the deployment of the transcatheter heart valve may suggest coronary obstruction.

Project description:Background: The outcome of redo transcatheter aortic valve (TAV) implantation (TAVI) is unknown for TAV structural valve degeneration (SVD). This paper reports the initial results of redo TAVI for TAV-SVD in Japanese patients. Methods?and?Results: Of 630 consecutive patients, 6 (1.0%) underwent redo TAVI for TAV-SVD (689-1,932 days after the first TAVI). The first TAV were 23-mm balloon-expandable valves (BEV, n=5) and a 26-mm self-expandable valve (SEV, n=1). All patients underwent multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) before redo TAVI, which showed first-TAV under-expansion (range, 19.1-21.0 mm) compared with the label size. Two BEV and 4 SEV were successfully implanted as second TAV, without moderate/severe regurgitation or 30-day mortality. One of 2 patients with a BEV-inside-BEV implantation had a high transvalvular mean pressure gradient post-procedurally (34 mmHg) and required surgical valve replacement 248 days after the redo TAVI. This, however, was unnoted in patients with SEV implantation during redo TAVI. Planned coronary artery bypass grafting was concomitantly performed in 1 patient with a small sino-tubular junction and SEV-inside-SEV implantation because of the risk of coronary malperfusion caused by the first TAV leaflets. Five of the 6 patients survived during the follow-up period (range, 285-1,503 days). Conclusions: Redo TAVI for TAV-SVD appears safe and feasible, while specific strategies based on MDCT and device selection seem important for better outcomes.
