We present the case of a patient with a paravalvular leak of mechanical prosthesis in aortic position. Due to a recent previous surgery, it was decided to perform a percutaneous repair to reduce perioperative risk, under an off-label indication using a device for ventricular septal defect closure, successful and without complications in the follow-up.
