| Abstract | Transcatheter aortic valve implantation has become well established in the past decade. Its superiority in comparison with conventional surgical aortic valve replacements in high-risk patients has been demonstrated in the Partner Cohort B trial.1 We report the first case of using an inverted transcatheter Edwards Sapien valve (Edwards Lifesciences, CA) in the native mitral valve position, to treat severe calcific mitral stenosis. A 70-year-old woman was admitted to the intensive care unit after having had a cardiorespiratory collapse requiring ventilatory support. She was initially referred for assessment of worsening breathlessness, 7 years after coronary artery bypass grafting and aortic valve replacement with a 21-mm Top Hat (Sulzer, Carbomedics, Austin, TX) valve. Investigations in another center revealed patent grafts, severe calcific mitral stenosis with a valve area of 0.9 cm2 and a mean gradient … |
