Summary
This session explores two clinical cases, providing valuable insights into the essential components of a straightforward and efficient TAVI procedure. Find out more about the application of innovative devices to broaden the scope of aortic valve intervention, facilitating their integration into Heart Team discussions and daily clinical routines.
- LIVE case: An 82-year-old male with symptomatic severe aortic stenosis treated by TAVI with a Sapien 29 mm without predilatation and single arterial access on conscious sedation.
- Recorded case: A 65-year-old male with permanent AF, with severe aortic regurgitation, with a highly depressed LV function (on LV assist device), treated on general anaesthesia with a Trilogy valve.
