Coronary access after TAVI: timing and techniques
Anchorperson:
D. W. Park
Summary
Struggling with PCI after TAVI? This session breaks it down with 3 real-world cases. You'll learn when and how to perform revascularization in severe AS patients, the impact of commissure alignment on future coronary access, and expert techniques for post-TAVI PCI:
- Case 1: Managing a patient with both significant coronary artery disease and severe aortic stenosis—when to treat and how
- Case 2: High-risk scenario—navitor TAVR in bicuspid AS with LM protection with "Double Guiding" technique
- Case 3: PCI after a supra-annular self-expanding valve (Evolut FX)—exploring the role of virtual reality for precise procedural planning.
Get up-to-date strategies, expert tips and the latest technology to optimize coronary interventions after TAVI!
Learning Objectives
- To learn the up-to-date knowlege of revascularisation strategy in severe aortic stenosis patients undergoing TAVI
- To understand the effect and timing of PCI in patients undergoing TAVI
- To understand the importance of commissure and coronary alignment after transcatheter heart valve impantation for the future coronary reaccess
- To share the up-to-date tips and techniques of post-TAVR PCI
- To know the usefulness of new technology using virtual reality assessment during PCI after TAVI
