Transcatheter aortic valve replacement in extra-large annulus is challenging because of the limited sizes and data of the current commercial prosthesis sizes available. We present a case of successful transcatheter aortic valve replacement with a new balloon-expandable SAPIEN 3 Ultra RESILIA valve for an aortic annulus area >1,000 mm2 on computed tomography.
