May offer an alternative to reoperation in selected high-risk patients; leaves open questions on long-term durability and optimal selection.
Transcatheter valve-in-valve implantation has evolved as a viable strategy for treating degenerated bioprosthetic surgical valves across multiple positions, requiring careful pre-procedural planning and anatomical appreciation.
Landes et al. (2017) conducted a review in Degenerated bioprosthetic surgical heart valves. Transcatheter heart valve implantation (valve-in-valve procedure) was evaluated. Transcatheter valve-in-valve implantation has evolved as a viable strategy for treating degenerated bioprosthetic surgical heart valves in the aortic, mitral, and tricuspid positions.
