First-in-human implantation of a novel transfemoral selfexpanding transcatheter heart valve to treat pure aortic regurgitation

Abstract
Here we will describe the first case of a novel JenaValve design (JenaValve Technology, Irvine, CA, USA) using the transfemoral approach in a 78-year-old female patient with pure aortic regurgitation. The implantation was successfully performed with good haemodynamics and good clinical outcome at six-month follow- up. The technology is especially appealing in non-calcified anatomies due to the clipping mechanism which was previously utilised in the transapical design.
