    AbstractThe limited durability of prosthetic cardiac valves together with an aging population will present ongoing management challenges. This paper describes the case of an 82 year-old male with symptomatic severe regurgitation in an aortic homograft which remains successfully treated with Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) at two-year follow-up.
