While there is growing interest in the expansion if its use to younger, lower risk patients with AS and select groups of patients with bicuspid aortic valve (BAV), its use in these individuals remains controversial due to limited durability data and the exclusion of these groups from major randomized controlled trials (RCTs).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Case summary<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A 28-year-old woman with a history of congenital BAV and prior balloon valvuloplasty in infancy, underwent TAVI with a 27\u2005mm SAPIEN-3 valve overseas, aged 24. At four years post-TAVI, she presented to hospital following an episode of presyncope and dyspnoea. ECG showed left bundle branch block (LBBB). Echocardiography demonstrated a well seated TAVI but severe restenosis with a maximum velocity of 5.5\u2005m\/s and a mean pressure gradient of 79\u2005mmHg. Normal coronaries without ostial compromise and no significant aortopathy was observed on cardiac computed tomography. The patient underwent surgery with a modified Bentall procedure and implantation of a 23\u2005mm St. Jude mechanical valve. Histology revealed degenerative valvular changes without hypoattenuated leaflet thickening. Her post-operative period was unremarkable.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This case illustrates the potential risks of performing TAVI in a young patient with severely calcified BAV, including conduction disturbance, structural valve degeneration and avoidable intervention to a normal aorta. The paucity of long-term outcome data precludes the use of TAVI in young, low-risk BAV patients and recommended intervention for severe AS in these individuals remains SAVR.<\/jats:p>\n
