Repositioning of an intraventricular dislocated aortic valve during transcatheter aortic valve implantation

Abstract

The case is presented of a 75-year-old man referred for transcatheter aortic valve implantation. During the procedure the prosthetic aortic valve became dislocated into the left ventricle shortly after expansion. The subsequent steps taken to reposition the valve using only materials at hand are described.
