We describe a patient with symptomatic severe mitral regurgitation, due to a failed 33-mm Epic (St. Jude Medical, St. Paul, MN) bioprosthetic heart valve surgically implanted 10-year before. For this specific purpose, we implanted a novel balloon-expandable transcatheter heart valve, the MyVal (Meril Life Science, Vapi, India). To the best of our knowledge, this is the second case describing the implantation of MyVal in a degenerative, surgically placed bioprosthesis.
