Key result
Open heart surgery successfully retrieves a displaced and rotated aortic bioprosthesis 43 days post-TAVI.
Why the study?
Delayed displacement and rotation of aortic bioprostheses after TAVI is a rare but serious complication requiring further clinical awareness.

Alerts clinicians to rare late TAVI prosthesis displacement; leaves open need for prospective data on long-term device stability.
Case Report (n=1)
Reports a rare case of late prosthesis migration and rotation 43 days after TAVI, successfully managed with open heart surgery.
Pang et al. (2012) conducted a case report in Severe aortic stenosis (n=1). Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) was evaluated on Survival of open heart surgery for device retrieval. A patient survived open heart surgery required for device retrieval after experiencing delayed displacement and rotation of an aortic bioprosthesis 43 days post-TAVI.
