Abstract
The indications for transfemoral transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) have
been expanding; however, treatment protocol for patients with severe aortic stenosis
with other significant valve disease is still controversial. Furthermore, there are
few randomized data to guide therapy in multivalvular disease. We describe a successful
percutaneous transvenous mitral commissurotomy and TAVR simultaneously. A 3-year follow-up
echocardiography showed preserved valve function.
Learning objective
A combination of percutaneous transvenous mitral commissurotomy and transcatheter
aortic valve replacement for multivalvular disease with severe mitral stenosis and
aortic stenosis may be a treatment option. For multivalvular disease, heart team decisions
can be valuable for an optimal management strategy.
