Abstract
An 85-year old man with a history of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) for severe symptomatic aortic stenosis was readmitted with cerebral stroke accompanied by fever. An infected prosthetic valve was revealed by echocardiography (Supplementary Video 1) and retrieved successfully with a surgical approach (Fig. 1). Supplementary material (Video 1) is available at EJCTS online. Video 1: Transoesophageal echocardiographic evaulation showing shaggy materials attached to the prosthetic valve with 1-cm floating linear vegetations.
