Deskripsi

A 79-year-old woman presented in cardiogenic shock with a flail bioprosthetic mitral valve leaflet and Staphylococcus aureus endocarditis. In the absence of other viable options, transfemoral valve-in-valve transcatheter mitral valve replacement was performed with a novel embolic protection device, resulting in trace mitral regurgitation and no neurologic complications. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.)
