Description
A pregnant patient at sixteen weeks faced a rare and dangerous problem: her replacement aortic valve, a bioprosthesis, had narrowed critically. The care team performed a valve-in-valve transcatheter aortic valve replacement, threading a new valve inside the failing one without open surgery, during the second trimester. The procedure succeeded. The authors use the case to stress the role of a multidisciplinary heart team in planning care before conception and through pregnancy when heart valve disease and pregnancy meet.
