  Abstract
  
  No data are available in the literature regarding the effectiveness and safety of transcatheter aortic valve implantation in patients who underwent previous mitral valve ring repair. Concerns exist related to the possible interference between the percutaneous aortic valve and the mitral annuloplasty ring. We report our experience with percutaneous aortic self-expandable valve implantation in a 76-year-old woman affected by severe aortic stenosis, previously operated on for "undersized" mitral annuloplasty repair of severe functional mitral regurgitation in dilated cardiomyopathy. No deformation of the nitinol tubing of the CoreValve device (CoreValve, Inc, Irvine, CA), neither distortion nor malfunction nor change of the conformation of the mitral ring occurred. No change in mitral function and regurgitation was evident at echocardiography monitoring, which was performed during the implant.

  Abstract
  
  Eisenmenger syndrome is the most common consequence of congenital cyanotic heart disease seen in adults; survival to the fifth decade of life is rare. Death is very difficult to predict: it is related to sudden cardiac ventricular arrhythmia, massive hemoptysis and right heart failure. In this paper, a patient with ventricular septal defect and Eisenmenger reaction is described. The patient was relatively well until 48 years of age, when she underwent surgery because of a cerebral abscess without cerebral complications but with some deterioration of her cardiac function. After discharge, the patient was readmitted to the hospital because the electrocardiogram showed persistent ST inferior elevation. Echocardiography demonstrated poor contractility and inferior akinesia. Sudden ventricular tachycardia occurred and the patient became unconscious. She was successfully resuscitated and, following a period of ventilation, the hemodynamics stabilized and she was discharged 17 days later. She remained well two years later.
