Novel dedicated devices allow transcatheter treatment of pure aortic regurgitation (AR). The JenaValve Trilogy Heart Valve System was introduced as the first dedicated and on-label AR transcatheter aortic valve replacement system, implementing a locator-based and calcium-independent anchoring mechanism. Here, we present the first-in-human transcatheter aortic valve replacement for pure AR via a transcaval access in a patient with prohibitive alternative arterial accesses.
