ABSTRACT:
Even though TAVI is a relatively new procedure it managed to become the default method for treatment of aortic stenosis in patients with high surgical risk. It is minimally invasive but not entirely free of complications. One of those is a paravalvular leak following a low implantation. In this article we present the different courses of action in this situation and share our experience on one such occasion.

Keywords: Transcatheter aortic-valve implantation (TAVI), aortic stenosis, paravalvular leak (PVL), snare kit,
