When transfemoral TAVI is not an option: rethinking alternative access strategies
18 Jun 2026
In this article, Ulrich Schäfer explores the evolving landscape of access strategies in transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). While the transfemoral approach remains the gold standard, a significant proportion of patients are not suitable due to peripheral vascular disease or anatomical constraints.
Drawing on clinical evidence and...
