Acute or delayed mechanical valve fracture with possible migration is a rare problem seen after valve replacement. We report a patient where mechanical aortic valve leaflet detachment was encountered during implantation. The missing leaflet was retrieved in the left atrium at the level of the right lower pulmonary vein. This has not yet been described, and prompt recognition and intervention is warranted.

- Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) is widely recognized as an effective treatment for Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS). Inspite of advances in equipment and experience of interventional cardiologist, still there are rare complications occurred [1]. Iatrogenic injury of the aortic valve leaflet is a rare. Aortic insufficiency (AI) after a PCI suggests an iatrogenic valve injury. Aortic leaflet injury is not common but possible complication of PCI. Because of the serious consequences, it should be mentioned in the informed consent. Aortic repair of iatrogenic injury is possible, and it can be performed with excellent clinical and functional midterm results. So, Aortic valve replacement (AVR) is the last option [2].
