Valve-in-valve: utility of splitting devices
Session comprising selected EuroPCR 2024 Clinical Case submissions
Summary
This session focuses on the use of specialized splitting devices for transcatheter aortic valve-in-valve procedures. It features a case series demonstrating the application of a dedicated splitting device in failed TAVI valves, as well as the use of the BASILICA technique for transcatheter aortic valve replacement. Additionally, the session explores the role of transesophageal imaging in guiding leaflet splitting procedures during valve-in-valve interventions. The discussions aim to provide insights and practical guidance on leveraging these advanced techniques to optimize outcomes in complex valve-in-valve cases.
