Paravalvular leak‐related aortic regurgitation after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is a common complication and is associated with increased short‐ and long‐term mortality. However, the impact of isolated central aortic regurgitation is unknown. We report a case of transapical (TA) TAVR with postprocedural central aortic regurgitation, who returned after two years with progression of regurgitation. A reoperative valve‐in‐valve TA‐TAVR was performed.
