Successful transcarotid transcatheter aortic valve replacement in a 34-kg patient with Schimke immuno-osseous dysplasia and severe biscuspid aortic stenosis

Abstract

We present the case of transcatheter aortic valve replacement in a 20-year-old woman with severe bicuspid aortic stenosis and Schmike immuno-osseous dysplasia who was unfit for surgical aortic valve replacement. Meticulous pre-procedural planning and a multidisciplinary team approach can enable successful transcatheter aortic valve replacement in complex patients with genetic syndromes.
