This report describes a clinical case of a degenerated CoreValve (Medtronic, Minneapolis, MN) aortic prosthesis in a 59-year-old patient. Videos of a previously described surgical technique for late surgical explantation of a CoreValve are provided. This operation is feasible and easy to perform, partly because of the absence of adhesions at the coronary ostia. This report also comments on the controversy between mechanical and biologic prostheses in patients undergoing renal dialysis.
