TAVI for patients with concomitant coronary artery disease - LIVE case
17 Feb 2024 – From PCR Tokyo Valves 2024
An 88-year-old male presented a severe symptomatic aortic valve with preserved LV function (64%), a coronary artery disease with a LAD PCI a few years ago and a significant (75%) RCA stenosis with an FFR angio at 0.74. He also has a short membrane septum (2.5...

Coronary physiology guidance vs conventional angiography for optimization of percutaneous coronary intervention: the AQVA-II Trial
24 Jan 2024
The primary aim of this study was to demonstrate the superiority of physiology-guided PCI, using either angiography or microcatheter-derived FFR, over conventional angiography-based PCI in complex high-risk indicated procedures (CHIPs) in obtaining a higher FFR post-PCI.
