TAVI in small annuli - Small anatomies, big challenges
21 May 2026 – From EuroPCR 2026
This session addresses the challenges of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) in patients with small aortic annuli. It features registry data comparing valve types, evaluates long-term outcomes, prosthesis-patient mismatch implications, and regional variations in clinical and quality-of-life outcomes.
How to snare a TAVI when crossing is too complex
30 Jan 2025
Crossing the aortic valve can pose significant challenges, particularly in cases involving a horizontal aorta, bulky asymmetric calcifications, or prior prosthesis implantation in valve-in-valve procedures. While some TAVI devices feature deflectable delivery systems to enhance coaxiality, current self-expanding valves lack this capability. When standard techniques like...

New evidence on TAVI from PCR Companions
17 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
This session features selected EuroPCR 2024 abstract submissions presenting the latest evidence on TAVI. Topics include device success in valve-in-valve TAVI, next-day discharge after TAVI, comparative network meta-analysis of PCI strategies in TAVI patients, factors associated with thrombosis treatment response, and outcomes of a novel balloon-expandable...
TAVI updates: expanding indications
14 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
This session presents the latest updates and evidence on the expanding indications for transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). It covers topics such as the impact of unfavorable aortic valve anatomy on TAVI outcomes, sex-specific differences in cardiac damage in aortic stenosis patients undergoing TAVI, the use...
