BACKGROUND: The increasing number of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) in the last few years has unveiled a unique set of events and complications that need prompt recognition and management in order to improve patient outcomes, often involving a multidisciplinary team.
CASE SUMMARY: We present a case of a 86-year-old woman with symptomatic severe aortic stenosis that underwent a TAVI and, in the post-procedure period, presented with acute abundant haematemesis, haemodynamic instability, and haemoglobin drop. The diagnosis of acute necrotizing oesophagitis (ANE) was made by upper gastrointestinal endoscopy.
DISCUSSION: Acute necrotizing oesophagitis is a rare entity caused usually by an ischaemic insult in the presence of predisposing factors; it has a high rate of complications and mortality. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first clinical case report to describe the occurrence of ANE as a possible complication of TAVI and is also an example of the importance of the multidisciplinary approach of these complex patients, which extends even beyond the concept of Heart Team.
