We present the technique of transcatheter balloon expandable (MELODY®) valve-in-valve deployment in a frail octogenarian with a failed previous tricuspid bioprosthesis. In patients who are not candidates for conventional surgery, transcatheter approach provides an alternative that warrants careful consideration.
