A Corrigendum on
Catheter-based Closure of a Post-infective Aortic Paravalvular Pseudoaneurysm Fistula With Severe Regurgitation After Two Valve Replacement Surgeries: A Case Report

by Onorato, E. M., Vercellino, M., Masoero, G., Monizzi, G., Sanchez, F., Muratori, M., and Bartorelli, A. L. (2021). Front. Cardiovasc. Med. 8:693732. doi: 10.3389/fcvm.2021.693732

In the original article, there was an error.

After 10 years, IE recurred and the mechanical valve was surgically replaced with a bioprosthetic valve. Ten years later, severe heart failure developed due to severe paravalvular leak (PVL) caused by an aortic annulus abscess complicated by a paravalvular pseudoaneurysm fistula (PPF).

A correction has been made to ABSTRACT, Case Summary, lines 3–4:

After nine months, IE recurred and the mechanical valve was surgically replaced with a bioprosthetic valve. Three years later, severe heart failure developed due to severe paravalvular leak (PVL) caused by an aortic annulus abscess complicated by a paravalvular pseudoaneurysm fistula (PPF).

The authors apologize for this error and state that this does not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way. The original article has been updated.
