Can We Six It? Double BASILICA Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement in Quadricuspid Aortic Valve.

Coronary artery obstruction is an uncommon yet devastating complication of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and may necessitate leaflet modification. A 38-year-old man presented to our center with quadricuspid aortic valve with severe aortic regurgitation. Double leaflet modification was performed with the Bioprosthetic or native Aortic Scallop Intentional Laceration to prevent Iatrogenic Coronary Artery obstruction (BASILICA) technique prior to TAVR, creating 6 leaflets from 4. The patient tolerated the procedure well with symptomatic improvement. Follow-up transthoracic echocardiogram showed normal bioprosthetic aortic valve function. This case demonstrates feasibility of this procedure with comprehensive preprocedural analysis and intraprocedural imaging guidance.
