Redo TAVI challenges
20 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
Focused on the complexities of redo transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI), this session covers innovative techniques such as jailed-balloon to prevent sinus sequestration, CT-guided emergency valve-in-valve procedures, alternative access routes, and strategies to manage coronary occlusion risks during multiple valve interventions.
Rapid CT-guided emergency TAVI-in-TAVI-in-valve for cardiogenic shock with high coronary obstruction risk
14 Apr 2026
An 85-year-old man presented in cardiogenic shock with torrential aortic regurgitation after prior surgical and TAVI valve-in-valve procedures. With high coronary obstruction risk, urgent CT assessment and in-silico simulations guided a rapid redo TAVI-in-TAVI-in-valve implantation, demonstrating that CT-assisted emergency redo-TAVI is feasible and lifesaving in high-risk...
