- Abstract
Key Clinical Message: Transcatheter mitral valve implantation (TMVI) is considered a less‐invasive approach than open‐heart surgery, favored in high‐risk patients elected for valve replacement. Although seemingly suitable, this procedure is highly operator‐dependent. Transcatheter mitral valve implantation (TMVI) is an alternative in high‐risk patients. We reported a 72‐year‐old patient with mitral bioprosthesis degeneration successfully receiving TMVI. The procedure has lower morbidity and mortality rate than the surgical approach but can be accompanied by several complications, especially when conducted by an inexperienced operator.
