Abstract

Abstract: Currently, there are no recommendations regarding the selection of valve type for a transcatheter heart valve (THV)‐in‐THV procedure. A supra‐annular valve design may be superior in that it results in a larger effective orifice area and may have a lower chance of valve thrombosis after THV‐in‐THV. In this report, we describe the use of a supra‐annular valve strategy for an early degenerated THV.
