Biologic Valve Leaflet Perforation Causing Persistent Aortic Insufficiency After Successful Transcatheter Closure of Paravalvular Leak

Abstract: Persistent paravalvular leak after aortic valve replacement prompted transcatheter closure with an Amplatzer VSD device. Although technically a successful procedure, aortic insufficiency persisted, leading to surgical reexploration and valve replacement.
