An 84-year man with prior coronary artery bypass surgery and endovascular repair of an abdominal aortic aneurysm developed congestive heart failu-re. He had calcific aortic valve disease with severe regurgitation. A #29 Edwards-Sapien aortic valve via trans-apical approach was implanted with the patient connected to extra corporeal circulation.
