Abstract
•Transcatheter closure of paravalvular leak of the EVOQUE valve is feasible and can be done from a transfemoral or transjugular approach.•Preoperative cardiac computed tomography is useful to characterize the location and size of the paravalvular leak defects.•The mechanisms of late paravalvular leak are unclear, but the progressive right ventricular dilatation and ellipsoid deformation of the tricuspid annulus may contribute to the development of leaks in the septal and lateral positions.
