Carotid-access transcatheter aortic valve replacement in a patient with a previous mitral valve replacement

Michael J Daly et al. J Card Surg. 2015 Mar.

Abstract

We describe a case of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) using carotid artery access and regional anesthesia in a patient with rheumatic heart disease, previous mitral valve replacement, and multiple co-morbidities. It highlights the role of the multidisciplinary Heart Team and multimodality imaging in reaching and implementing an appropriate management plan in this complex patient group.
