The Alterra Adaptive Prestent is approved for the treatment of patients with severe pulmonary regurgitation who have dilated native or surgically repaired right ventricle outflow tracts. This device provides a landing zone for transcatheter pulmonary valve replacement with a 29-mm SAPIEN 3 transcatheter heart valve. We present a case of transcatheter pulmonary valve replacement using a 26-mm SAPIEN S3 Ultra valve within the Alterra due to concern for coronary compression, with an excellent procedural outcome. This is the first reported case of placing a 26-mm SAPIEN transcatheter heart valve in the Alterra.
