Summary

A 74-year-old male with a history of cancer, TAVI with Evolut R 34 in 2019, COPD, obesity, and RBBB presents with a symptomatic degenerated valve (regurgitation).
It was decided to implant a Sapien 3 Ultra 26, without pre-dilatation and post-dilatation, using a temporary pacing lead (due to RBBB), via the right femoral approach with right radial as secondary access. The closure devices used were 1 ProGlide and 1 AngioSeal.
