Percutaneous Aspiration (AngioVac) of a Mitral Valve Vegetation followed by a Transcatheter Mitral Valve-in-Valve Intervention

The AngioVac transcatheter aspiration system (Angiodynamics) is used to percutaneously extract thrombi as well as vegetations typically growing from the right heart. We report a case of a failed mitral stented bioprosthesis due to a large vegetation that was treated successfully with AngioVac evacua...

description The AngioVac transcatheter aspiration system (Angiodynamics) is used to percutaneously extract thrombi as well as vegetations typically growing from the right heart. We report a case of a failed mitral stented bioprosthesis due to a large vegetation that was treated successfully with AngioVac evacuation through a transseptal puncture followed by valve-in-valve intervention in the same setting.
