Popis: We present the case of a 73-year-old male patient undergoing a modified Bentall-DeBono procedure in 2015 due to aortic stenosis and aortic aneurism involving the root. A bioprosthetic stented conduit made with a stented Edwards Perimount 21-mm bioprosthesis and a Vascutek Valsalva 28-mm Dacron graft was implanted along with a mitral annuloplasty. Five years later, due to early degeneration of the bioprosthesis and a progression of the mitral disease, he underwent a second surgical procedure where a Medtronic Mosaic 27-mm valve prosthesis was implanted in mitral position and a sutureless Livanova Perceval 23-mm valve in aortic position. Because of the difficulty in removing the previously implanted aortic prosthesis, the Perceval valve was inserted inside the frame of the PeriMount as an open "valve-in-valve" procedure. In October 2020, the patient underwent a ViV TAVI with a 23-mm Edwards Sapien 3 (Edwards Lifescience). After induction of general anesthesia and heparin administration, the procedure was performed via right femoral artery approach with preimplantation of two Proglides. After transfemoral insertion of a 14-French sheath, the aortic valve was crossed with a 0.035-in. straight guide-wire, taking care to avoid crossing the crowns of Perceval frame. After exchange of the standard wire with an extra-stiff 0.035-in. Safari wire, the Sapien-3 valve was advanced across the two previously implanted surgical valves and deployed at the level of the Perceval ring. After bioprosthesis deployment, peak-to-peak left ventricular aortic gradient was reduced from 51 to 16 mmHg.
