Anchorperson: K. Hayashida

Procedural Analyst: Y. Ohno

Summary

This session delves into the comprehensive management of ischemic heart disease in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). It highlights the critical importance of maintaining coronary access post-TAVI and explores how various valve designs affect coronary accessibility, particularly in cases involving valve-in-valve (TAV-in-TAV) procedures, guiding lifetime management strategies.

Learning Objectives

To discuss management of ischemic heart disease in patients undergoing TAVI
To learn about the importance of coronary access after TAVI
To understand how valve design influences the ability for coronary access after TAVI and TAV-in-TAV
