Bicaval Medtronic Melody valve implantation for treatment of severe mitral regurgitation following the Mustard repair: A case report.

We present a case of successful bicaval Melody valve implantation to treat severe mitral regurgitation in a 44-year-old man with d-transposition of the great arteries, repaired via a Mustard operation. The patient sustained injury to the anterior mitral valve leaflet during laser extraction of a ventricular pacing lead resulting in acute, severe, symptomatic mitral regurgitation. The presence of systemic venous baffles of similar caliber to right ventricular outflow tract conduits allowed for implantation of Melody valves within each baffle. The patient remains asymptomatic with excellent Melody valve function 14 months post procedure.
