TAVI: alternative access - Part 2
18 Nov 2025 – From PCR London Valves 2025
This session addresses alternative access routes for TAVI in patients with challenging vascular anatomy. Topics include transapical valve-in-valve procedures complicated by severe aortic regurgitation, percutaneous TAVI via the brachiocephalic trunk, and strategies for managing hostile vascular anatomies. Solutions for scenarios where transfemoral TAVI is not feasible...
TAVI: alternative access
17 Nov 2025 – From PCR London Valves 2025
This session addresses alternative access routes for TAVI in patients with challenging vascular anatomies. It includes innovative approaches such as transapical TAV-in-TAV procedures, transcaval implantation in emergency settings, and techniques for patients with hostile iliofemoral access, showcasing adaptive strategies when conventional access is not feasible.
Complex combined interventions
16 Nov 2025 – From PCR London Valves 2025
This session presents complex combined interventions tackling multiple valvular and structural heart challenges simultaneously. It highlights innovative procedural approaches such as the 'super combo' techniques, strategies for managing deteriorative mitral regurgitation post-tricuspid valve replacement, and comprehensive management of torrential tricuspid regurgitation within rheumatic multivalvular disease contexts,...
