Aortic stenosis doesn't play alone: TAVI in multivalvular and coronary artery disease patients
11 Sep 2025 – From PCR Rio Valves 2025
Managing aortic stenosis becomes even more challenging when it coexists with coronary artery disease (CAD) or multivalvular pathology. For patients with CAD, careful assessment of symptoms, lesion severity, and anatomy guides whether PCI is best performed before, during, or after TAVI, always with future coronary access...
