Abstract

We describe the case of a degenerative, sutureless bioprosthetic valve (BPV) with deformation and stent infolding in a patient with elevated surgical risk. Following discussion among the heart team, balloon valve fracture was performed to facilitate deployment of an aortic valve-in-valve transcatheter heart valve. Post-procedural imaging demonstrated BPV frame protrusion and contained annular rupture, which required operative intervention. (Level of Difficulty: Intermediate.)
