RESUMO
Severe mitral annular calcification poses a significant challenge, particularly in higher risk, frail, elderly patients with multivalvular disease. Both surgical and transcatheter options exist but remain fraught with risks of paravalvular leak, atrioventricular groove disruption, patient prosthesis mismatch, and left ventricular outflow tract obstruction. We present an innovative hybrid surgical approach to manage severe aortic and mitral valve disease in a Jehovah's Witness patient with severe circumferential mitral annular calcification.

Severe circumferential mitral annular calcification (MAC) remains a significant challenge, complicating surgical treatment of mitral valve disease. Transcatheter treatment options are attractive; however, they remain fraught with risks of annular fixation, paravalvular leak, atrioventricular-groove disruption, and left-ventricular outflow tract obstruction. We describe a novel minimally invasive hybrid technique of transcatheter mitral valve replacement in a patient with severe circumferential MAC.
