TAVI essentials: anatomical factors, prosthesis selection, and complication management
Summary
Discover a comprehensive exploration of critical considerations in TAVI in this section. From anatomical factors guiding the choice between TAVI and SAVR to strategies for selecting the optimal TAVI prosthesis for individual patients, each topic offers essential insights. Gain valuable insights into navigating TAVI for bicuspid anatomy, managing pure native aortic regurgitation, and addressing high gradients post-TAVI. Explore the ongoing challenges of paravalvular leakage in TAVR and learn about advanced imaging techniques for quantifying it. Delve into topics such as subclinical leaflet thrombosis and infective endocarditis after TAVI, providing a comprehensive view of this evolving field.
