Summary:This report describes an approach for the treatment of high-risk native mitral valve stenosis. It incorporates the deployment of a transcatheter valve in the mitral position under full endoscopic vision, combined with endoscopic mitral repair techniques that secure valve positioning and reduce the risk of paravalvular leak. This approach could be used as a rescue procedure in centres with experience in transcatheter and endoscopic valve techniques.
