Summary

Dive into the intricacies of TAV-in-SAV procedures for failed surgical bioprosthetic valves. Gain a comprehensive understanding of the key information needed to evaluate a failed surgical bioprosthesis before considering a valve-in-valve intervention. Learn strategies to avoid high gradients and patient-prosthesis mismatch, and explore the clinical relevance of trans-valve gradient measurements. This session promises to equip you with the knowledge to optimize outcomes in this challenging patient population.
