Percutaneous Valve in aortic valve bioprosthesis through a carotid prosthesis Authors: 1)Corresponding author : BENHALLA Hanane ,Doctor,MD Brussels heart center –Brussels,Belguim Contact phone :00212661885875/Email :[email protected] Address: 23 lotissement lamia ,Bourgogne Casablanca .Morocco 2) SOREA Camelia ,Doctor,MD Brussels heart center –Brussels,Belguim Keywords : valve in valve ,carotid bioprosthesis ,percutaneous aortic valve Abstact : In recent years, transcatheter aortic valve implantation has become an emerging alternative for high-risk patients with severe aortic stenosis. A promising new indication in this technology could be the interventional treatment of degenerated bioprosthesis ,a vascular prosthesis access was used in our case to facilitate the procedure in the absence of an adequate vascular acces for no refusing the patient. Learning objective : Patient selection for the TAVI without adequate acess remain crucial ,and this a case how we can face this situation. Introduction The first percutaneous aortic valve replacement has been performed by Dr. A. Cribier in 2002 , opening a new therapeutic approach to patients at high surgical risk for conventional operation by sternotomy. In a short time , there has been an improvement of the material and a simplification of the procedure,the surgical approach used and the implantation technique .However patients selection remains crucial , We describe a percutaneous aortic valve implantation(a CoreValve bioprosthesis) in a degenerate bioprosthesis without an adequate vascular acces, and who we decide a carotid bioprosthesis in per operative procedure. Clinical case: Patient of 83 years who has an history of ischemic heart disease with moderate left ventricular dysfunction ( ejection fraction 45% ) , he received in 2009 a replacement of his aortic valve bioprosthesis (with a Mitroflow No. 23) that has gradually become stenotic . The patient had at his admission a dyspnea stage IV refractory to medical treatment with severe.decompensation ,the logistqiue EuroSCORE was calculated at 36%. Preoperative echocardiographic data objectified an aortic stenosis with a mean gradient of 53 mmHg , a maximum gradient of 87 mmHg and an aortic area calculated by the continuity equation 0.8 cm2 . Preoperative CT angiography showed a diameter of the common iliac artery of 5 mm and a diameter of the left iliac artery to 5 mm , the diameter of the sub clavian arteries was 6 mm , and retained the first carotid as the only solution with a biprosthesis to facilitate the procedure. The intervention consisted of a first right carotid positioning with a bioprosthetic in Dacron to facilitate the introduction of CoreValve , and a right femoral small acces (5 french) useful for the introduction of the probe aortography during the procedure. the Figure No [ 1,2 ] shows the development of the valve in valve ( CoreValve model 23) directly without prior dilation with at the time of deployment of the valve in a valve ;a localization 4 mm below the position considered ideal for implantation,(figure N [ 3 ]) this may explains that in the immediate postoperative a persistent transaortic mean gradient at 20 mm Hg , a maximum gradient of 42 mm Hg and a 1.1 cm2 surface . Post-operative follow was under inotropes drugs with extubation the first day after the procedure. The improvement of signs of heart failure was observed in the first week for the patient.. The patient was seen one month after the procedure with a clear clinical improvement and regression of his episodes of cardiac decompensation . Discussion: This patient therefore had aortic stenosis in already a bioprosthesis with a refractory dyspnea . It remains to determine if the patient is technically affordable percutaneously with angiographic evaluation of vascular axes with the aortic annulus , the ascending aorta and the distance with the coronary arteries ostias by ( transthoracic echocardiography , CT -scan) the size of the ring can vary significantly depending on the selected imaging and should not be generally less than 18 mm or greater than 29 mm as well as close to the aortic annulus to coronary ostia witch remains crucial . The incision in our case of the right primitive carotid artery was facilitated by the introduction of a prosthesis carotid in Dacron , which is according to our knowledge a first procedure [ 3 ]. Modine and all, reported 12 cases of aortic valve implantation by a carotid acces without prosthesis , one patient had a transient ischemic stroke .So electroencephalogram monitoring in parallel to procedure seems necessary to monitor cerebral perfusion [3 ] The median time for the implantation of the valve in valve is still about 120 min in the European register[ 3 ] ,for our case, it was 180 min with a fluoroscopy time of 36 min explained by the initial implatation of the carotid prosthesis . For the valve in valve procedure the most common risk is the worse deployment of the percutaneous valve secondary to calcifications usually present on the bioprosthesis especially if it is asymmetric [ 3 ],There is also often the need to implant a permanent pacemaker ( 5.7 % to 20 % for Corvalve ) which remains the most common event described in the first 30 days with a positioning 2 at 6 mm below the base of the aortic annulus ,witch may interfere with the atrioventricular node , located very close to the aortic region and submembranous septum [ 3,4 ] CONCLUSION: Percutaneous aortic valve replacement on degenerated bioprosthesis is a new option as an alternative to surgery for patients at high surgical risk. This technique allows hemodynamic and functional improvement that persists in the medium term . Patient selection and multidisciplinary approach remains critical , with also a careful analysis of surgical approaches and vascular acces to guess complications in per operative procedure..
