The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness and outcomes of this emerging procedure. Methods Fourty VIV procedures were performed in 38 consecutive patients (mean age 70 ± 14 years and mean Logistic EuroScore 23.6 ± 15.5%) with severe aortic (n = 19) or mitral (n = 21) bioprosthetic valve dysfunction between 2014 and 2017. Bioprosthetic failure was secondary to stenosis in 11 (27.5%), regurgitation in 19 (47.5%), and combined in 10 (25.0%) bioprostheses. Clinical, echocardiographic, and procedural profiles were characterized, and the short-term results of the study patients were reported. Results Successful transfemoral (n = 15), trans-subclavian (n = 1), or transapical (n = 3) aortic VIV using either balloon-expandable valves (Edwards Sapien XT, n = 7) or self-expandable valves (Medtronic CoreValve, n = 12); and transapical (n = 21) mitral VIV using either Edwards Sapien XT (n = 15) or me-chanically expandable valves (Boston Scientific Lotus, n = 6) were accomplished in all 40 VIV procedures. Implantation was successful with immediate restoration of satisfactory valve function in all patients. Five patients (13.2%) died at a median follow up of 9.3 months. Most of the 33 patients alive were in good functional status with good prosthetic valve performance. Conclusions Transcatheter VIV implantation is a feasible and safe option for the management of bioprosthetic valve failure. It may offer a less invasive alternative for those high-risk patients needing repeat valve replacement.展开更多
