We present the case of a 44-year-old male presenting with syncope and acute heart failure. Multi-modality imaging, including cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), revealed a large (7.4 × 6.9 cm) basal septal left ventricle (LV) aneurysm with a thick mural thrombus and severe MR secondary to anterior leaflet tethering. Coronary angiography ruled out ischemic etiology. Under cardiopulmonary bypass, the mitral valve was accessed via a paraseptal left atrial approach. An Alfieri stitch (edge-to-edge repair) was utilized to correct the leaflet prolapse, achieving competent coaptation. The aneurysm was approached externally; the cavity was incised, and the thrombus evacuated. The 2.5-cm aneurysmal neck was excluded using an autologous pericardial patch, followed by a double-layer linear aneurysmorrhaphy to obliterate the cavity. The patient had an uneventful postoperative course and was discharged on day 9. This case demonstrates that a combined approach-aneurysm exclusion via pericardial patch and concomitant edge-to-edge mitral valve repair-provides a durable, safe solution for SLVA.

All TAVR platforms shortened hospital stay by approximately 4 days. SAVR was associated with significantly lower rates of paravalvular regurgitation and permanent pacemaker implantation at all time horizons.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>In low-risk severe aortic stenosis, TAVR, particularly with balloon-expandable valves, appears to offer comparable short-term and intermediate-term survival with superior procedural safety versus SAVR. In exploratory ≥3-year analyses, SAVR was associated with lower mortality specifically within the heterogeneous TAVR-Mixed cohort; TAVR-BE and TAVR-SE showed no significant mortality difference from SAVR at this horizon, underscoring the importance of platform-specific and individualised decision-making.</p><p><strong>Supplementary information: </strong>The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s12055-026-02245-1.</p>","PeriodicalId":13285,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery","volume":"42 9","pages":"1066-1088"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2026-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13437856/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148678530","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
