Résumé
Transapical transcatheter aortic valve implantation is an emerging technique for high-risk patients with symptomatic aortic valve stenosis, peripheral vascular disease, and severe concomitant comorbidities. However, a previous major surgical intervention involving the left hemithorax and the lung has always been considered a technical surgical challenge or even a potential contraindication for this minimally invasive procedure. With this report, we demonstrate, for the first time, that a previous left pneumonectomy followed by mediastinal radiotherapy does not affect the feasibility of transapical transcatheter aortic valve implantation, and we discuss the preoperative workup and the peculiar intraoperative cardiac imaging and surgical assessment.
