Summary
Explore the complexities of TAVI in patients with intricate aortic stenosis: learn the critical role of detailed CT imaging and meticulous pre-procedural planning, and find out how to customize valve selection and implantation techniques to match unique patient anatomies, such as highly calcified tricuspid valves, low coronaries, valve-in-valve procedures, small anatomies, and challenging transfemoral access.
Learning Objectives
- To know more about the challenges associated with TAVI in patients with complex aortic stenosis
- To understand the importance of detailed CT-imaging and careful pre-procedural planning
- To understand how to tailor the selected valve and implant technique to individual patient anatomy
