screening for left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) gradients, which could compromise the LVOT after valve replacement. However, due to shadowing from the valve prosthesis or surgi­cal sewing ring, TTE has decreased sensitivity and is often inadequate to fully evaluate the failing metallic mitral prosthesis. Therefore TEE (Fig. 16.4) should be performed in preparation for the procedure and is superior for the evaluation of mitral regurgitation, the mechanism of prosthesis failure, and the presence of PVL. the presence of left atrial appendage thrombus and can be used in evaluation of prosthesis/ annular dimensions.

Computed Tomography Angiography
Although not necessary for the majority of valve-in-valve procedures, gated CTA provides superior anatomic definition for procedural planning (Fig. 16.5) and is critical for planning of mitral valve-in-ring and for valve-in-valve procedures where a high risk of LVOT obstruction has been identified, typically due to a highly angulated mitral prosthesis position. CTA pro­vides precise fluoroscopic angles and high special resolution measurements to guide the inter­vention. For patients with mitral rings, CTA provides an accurate annular area measured in diastole to determine optimal prosthesis size, and also delineates the circumferential extent of the annular ring. In general, patients with incomplete rings are not considered candidates for valve-in-ring due to inadequate anchoring and risk of prosthesis embolism. CTA provides precise fluoroscopic angles with high spatial resolution to guide the intervention. For patients with mitral rings, CTA provides an accurate annular area measured in diastole to determine optimal prosthesis size and also delineates the circumferential extent of the annular ring. In general, patients with incomplete rings are not considered candidates for valve-in-ring due to inadequate anchoring and risk of prosthesis embolism. Based on the angles of the mitral annulus or existing valve, the ideal fluoroscopy angles for valve deployment can be estimated. Another benefit is identifying the optimal location of atrial septal puncture as well as sig­nificant septal thickening or scarring that poses a challenge. The septal puncture should be

positioned so that there is adequate room in the left atria and to ensure appropriate angles for valve positioning and stability during deployment. A critical consideration for procedural plan­ning is assessment of LVOT obstruction risk. Because of the intimate relationship of the mitral annulus with the aortic valve annulus and LVOT, any valve that protrudes past the annulus and into the LVOT can potentially create a clinically significant systolic gradient. Therefore it is important to consider the aortomitral angle and the LVOT size during systole. In patients undergoing valve-in-valve, the prior prosthetic valve can provide landmarks for deployment, with the goal of the ventricular strut edges being at the level of the prior valve struts or even to cover just the prosthesis leaflets. In these patients the anterior leaflet has usually been re­moved or is already immobilized and therefore unlikely to cause obstruction. In the case of valve-in-ring, the presence of the native anterior leaflet poses a potential risk, as it will be displaced anteriorly toward the LVOT, potentially obstructing blood flow. Therefore the length of the anterior leaflet in conjunction with aortomitral angle and LVOT size in systole should be evaluated to ensure adequate area once the anterior leaflet is permanently displaced. CTA computer-assisted detection software is available, which can help in planning by placing vari­ous-sized virtual valves based on the patient anatomy to evaluate the “neo-LVOT” after valve deployment. Ideally the anticipated neo-LVOT should be larger than 250 mm deployment, though current limited data suggest an area as low as 190 mm

after valve
may be sufficient.12 In patients in whom the LVOT area will be prohibitive to replacement, two options can be considered. First, alcohol septal ablation 4 to 6 weeks before the procedure can be attempted to maximize LVOT diameter. Second, a novel percutaneous laceration of the anterior mitral leaflet, or “Lampoon” procedure, can be performed at the time of the procedure to minimize the risk of the anterior leaflet causing obstruction.

Transseptal Balloon-Expandable Mitral Valve Implantation Technique
Our preferred route for delivery is the transseptal approach, which is technically feasible in almost all patients and provides rapid recovery and low procedural morbidity. In the early development of the transseptal technique, a transapical rail was utilized for additional support; however, with the improvement in support and maneuverability of the most recent SAPIEN delivery systems, this is no longer necessary.
Patients are placed under general anesthesia, and intraprocedural TEE imaging is used in ad-
dition to fluoroscopic guidance. Vascular access is obtained via the common femoral vein, and one Perclose ProGlide device (Abbott Vascular, Santa Clara, CA) is deployed in a preclosure fashion. The Edwards eSheath is then introduced. Next a 5F pacing catheter is advanced into the right ventricle for rapid pacing during valve deployment. Transseptal puncture is then performed under TEE guidance. Once crossed, an Inoue wire (Toray Industries, Tokyo, Japan) is advanced and the septum is dilated with an Inoue dilator. Unfractionated heparin is administered, aiming for an activated clotting time goal greater than 300 sec. The left atrial pressure is measured and recorded. A 9F Dexterity steerable introducer (Spirus Medical, West Bridgewater, WA) is then inserted into the left atrium and used to advance a pigtail catheter across the mitral valve and into the left ven­tricular apex. A small or extra-small curve Safari wire (Boston Scientific, Marlborough, MA) is then positioned in the left ventricular apex. After removal of the pigtail and Dexterity guide, the atrial septum is dilated with a 12-mm Mustang (Boston Scientific, Marlborough, MA). After inflation for 30 seconds, the balloon can be “flossed” by advancing and inflating it in the atrium and pulled back through the atrial ostomy, then advanced across the septum to the mitral valve to ensure a smooth path for the transcatheter valve and delivery system (Fig. 16.6A).
The valve is then mounted into the delivery catheter with skirt orientation toward the atrial
side (toward the delivery system handle) and advanced into the vena cava. The balloon is pulled back to align it within the crimped valve, and this should be performed in a straight section of the inferior vena cava. The delivery catheter is then advanced over the Safari wire. In order for the delivery catheter and valve to cross the atrial septostomy, counterclockwise rotation with no or minimal catheter flexion is typically required. Once across, the valve is positioned using a right anterior oblique orthogonal fluoroscopic view as well as TEE guidance. The SAPIEN central marker is typically aligned with the sewing ring or annuloplasty ring, and ideally 10% to 20% of the valve prosthesis should be on the atrial side of the sewing ring after deployment (see Fig. 16.6B). The ventricular edge of the new prosthesis should ideally be at the level or just inside of the previous prosthesis ventricular edge (Fig. 16.7).
Valve expansion should be completed steadily over a 5- to 8-second period under direct fluo-
roscopy until minor valve stent flaring is achieved on the ventricular side; this may require up to 2 mL of additional volume beyond full deployment depending on the prosthesis size. Rapid ven­tricular pacing at 160 to 180 beats per minute (bpm) during valve deployment can be performed to ensure stability, but is not essential. Ventilation can also be held at the time of deployment for further stabilization. Fine movements of the Safari wire and delivery system can be made during deployment to assist in positioning.
If there is concern for LVOT obstruction (e.g. for valve-in-ring), a pigtail catheter can be
inserted into the left ventricle for simultaneous monitoring of left ventricular and aortic pres­sures. The left atrial pressure should be measured postdeployment to assess the procedural result (Fig. 16.8).
Once valve evaluation is complete, wires and delivery catheter can be withdrawn. TEE evalu-
ation of the iatrogenic atrial septal defect usually demonstrates a small defect with left-to-right or mild bidirectional shunting and does not require closure. However, if there is a large amount of shunting, significant right-to-left shunting due to underlying pulmonary hypertension, or presence

Once all sheaths are removed, hemostasis can be achieved with the previously placed closure device, followed by gentle manual pressure for 5 minutes.

Transapical Technique
As discussed previously, the transseptal approach has advantages over the transapical technique but requires transseptal skills and has a learning curve. Many operators may still feel more com­fortable with the transapical technique, and therefore it is briefly included here. Beyond this,

some patients may have prohibitive factors such as difficult atrial septal anatomy or vascular access issues, which preclude a transseptal approach.
The transapical technique is best suited for a hybrid operating room setting with general
anesthesia and fluoroscopy guidance. A right ventricular pacing wire should be placed, as de­scribed previously. Transapical access is obtained via a small anterior thoracotomy at the fifth or sixth intercostal space based on CT guidance. Coronary angiogram may be helpful to document coronary location and avoid coronary artery injury. Once the left ventricular apex is identified, it is secured via pledgeted sutures. The left ventricle is then accessed, and a soft J guidewire can be used to cross the mitral valve. After this, a 6F catheter can be introduced across the valve. The guidewire is then exchanged for a 0.035-mm Amplatz Extra Stiff wire (Cook Medical, Bloom­ington, IN) to provided added support for the upsizing to a 26F Ascendra I delivery system (Edwards Lifesciences, Irvine, CA). The appropriate-sized valve is selected and confirmed based on TEE imaging. Note that the Edwards SAPIEN valve will be crimped onto the delivery cath­eter in the opposite direction for transapical compared with transseptal access. The valve is then

Procedural Complications
With appropriate preprocedural planning, LVOT obstruction risk can be minimized (Fig. 16.16). However, if there is evidence of LVOT obstruction after valve deployment, traditional treatments of LVOT obstruction can be attempted, including fluids, beta-blockers, and vasoconstriction medications, which can result in improved gradients and negate the need for further intervention. Alcohol septal ablation has been accomplished as a bailout strategy to relieve LVOT obstruction

Fig. 16.12 A small preshaped wire (e.g., Safari wire) is then positioned in the left ventricular apex. This is used to advance a 12-mm Mustang balloon across the intraatrial septum. This is inflated for 30 seconds and then “flossed” across both the atrial septum and the mitral valve to ensure a smooth path for the transcatheter valve and delivery system.

and can be considered if conservative measures are unsuccessful and surgical correction is not an option.
PVL can stem from valve undersizing, underdeployment, or irregularities of the mitral an­nulus due to calcifications or rigid annuloplasty rings that do not conform to the transcatheter valve shape. Because of the lack of deformation, rigid rings may predispose to PVL more so than compliant semirigid or flexible rings. If PVL is felt to be due to underdeployment, additional balloon dilation can be attempted, with additional volume added to the existing delivery balloon. Care should be taken to avoid any air in the system, as balloon rupture is possible. Additional dilation with a noncompliant balloon can be considered, but this increases the risk of damage to

Fig. 16.15 After valve deployment, evaluation with transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) is performed to assess valve position, ensure prosthesis stability, and assess for prosthetic and paraprosthetic regurgitation. The left ventricular outflow tract size and gradient can also be measured. TEE also provides an assessment of overall systolic function and rules out pericardial effusion.

the prosthetic valve and generally should be avoided. If balloon expansion fails, percutaneous PVL closure can be attempted.
Device embolization or migration occurs due to inadequate ventricular positioning, undersiz­ing, or insufficient anchoring. In patients with incomplete annuloplasty rings, the risk of poor anchoring of the Edwards valve is significantly increased, and the procedure may need to be avoided altogether. Flaring of the valve stent ends minimizes, but does not eliminate, the risk of valve migration. If migration occurs but has minimal movement, another valve can be deployed within the migrating valve to anchor both valves and ensure no further embolization. However, if there is severe malposition or overt embolization, the primary course of action is emergent cardiac surgery to retrieve the device and replace the valve.
Left ventricular perforation by the anchoring wire has been reported and was a major cause of early bleeding complications with the transseptal technique; however, this risk has been reduced with improvements and modifications to the wires used.

Intraprocedural TEE can identify pericardial effusion if this occurs and pericardiocentesis performed if evidence of tamponade. If considerable hemodynamic compromise remains, emergent surgical repair may be required.
Postprocedural Care
Most patients are extubated immediately postprocedure and monitored on telemetry. On post­procedural day 1, a limited TTE is obtained to evaluate valve function and obtain baseline hemodynamics, to assess right and left heart function, and to rule out pericardial effusion. Close monitoring of access sites should be performed to rule out any vascular complications or bleeding. Unless there is evidence of bleeding complications, patients are bridged with heparin
