Abstract:
Treatment of prosthetic valve endocarditis after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) remains challenging. An increase in TAVR endocarditis is inevitable, especially with the extension of indications and implantation in low-risk patients. We present a case of complex surgical treatment of prosthetic valve endocarditis after TAVR.
