ABSTRACT
As a consequence of the growing number of implanted transcatheter aortic valve prostheses, the increasing incidence of early and late complications of biological valves requires in several cases surgical explantation of the transcatheter valve and subsequent aortic root or surgical aortic valve replacement. In this video tutorial, we show how to avoid aortic root damage in the surgical explantation of a transcatheter aortic valve bioprosthesis in a patient with a dysfunctional transcatheter aortic valve prosthesis affected by endocarditis 15 months after implantation. The infected prosthesis and all foreign materials, concomitant to the calcified native valve, were excised en bloc in preparation for the extensive debridement of infected tissue in the abscess cavity. The defect on the aortic annulus was reconstructed using a pericardial patch, followed by a surgical valve implant.
