Balloon- versus self-expanding valve systems for treating small failed surgical aortic bioprostheses: the LYTEN trial
23 May 2022
Luigi provides us with the interventional cardiologist's point of view!
Currently, TAVR selection process is performed by matching the internal diameter of the surgically implanted bioprostheses to the external diameter of commercially available TAVR devices. Nonetheless, the impact of intrinsic design differences, such as supra vs intra-annular design,...
