TAVI for degenerated surgical aortic bioprotheses: procedural challenges
19 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session addresses the procedural challenges inherent in transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) for degenerated surgical aortic bioprostheses. It covers high-risk valve-in-valve implantation cases as last-resort therapies, management of drifting bioprostheses, and interventions in failed small non-fracturable valves threatening coronary arteries. Techniques such as BASILICA and...
