Rapid-fire - Complications in SHD interventions
17 Feb 2024 – From PCR Tokyo Valves 2024
Learn more about complications related to structural heart disease interventions through this rapid-fire series of cases. Discover cases such as a cardiac arrest due to coronary artery obstruction two days after TAVI using a balloon-expandable valve, an aortic stenosis case switched to surgery due to severe...
Achieving the optimal outcome using the latest self-expandable TAVI - LIVE case
17 Feb 2024 – From PCR Tokyo Valves 2024
An 86-year-old woman presented severe symptomatic aortic stenosis and coronary artery disease with a preserved LV function. The operators performed a PCI of the RCA ostium one month ago. The CT showed a small femoral access (diameter: 5.3 to 4.9 mm).
After a predilatation with a 20 mm...
