Abstract:
We present the case of a 72-year-old man with severe anterior and posterior paravalvular aortic leakages and discuss the patient's presentation, management, and outcome. Our case demonstrates integration of the EchoNavigator system during a paravalvular leak procedure, which combined echocardiography and fluoroscopy to improve outcomes. EchoNavigator can assist in device positioning, helping prevent possible complications. Moreover, EchoNavigator can increase safe and consistent results to help universalize complex structural interventions.
