Has anyone had a percutaneous paravalvular leak closure procedure? How long was the recovery time? I'm having this done on 9 February and I can't find any advice online (avoiding anything Dr Google) other than academic papers or adverts to have it performed in an American hospital (I'm in England!!!)
Any advice gratefully received.

Hello and welcome to the forum!
Whilst having no direct experience I do know that this can be done two ways; either by OHS (open heart surgery) or via a minimally invasive catheter procedure. Recovery from OHS would be similar to any OHS (typically three months before you can return to work) and from a catheter procedure considerably faster. Obviously your current state of health and any other medical conditions would affect this. Good luck!
