Transcatheter valve-in-valve treatment of degenerated supra-annular stentless bioprostheses may be challenging and associated with a high risk of coronary occlusion. Preprocedural imaging evaluation is a key step to assess feasibility and to minimize or prevent coronary occlusion. We report the case of a degenerated Freedom Solo valve, treated with a balloon-expandable valve and a previously deflated stent positioned at the level of both coronary ostia. The procedure was successful but stent inflation at the right coronary ostium was required due to slow flow that occurred after valve implantation.
