Challenging TAVI
16 Nov 2025 – From PCR London Valves 2025
This session addresses the complexities encountered in transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) in challenging anatomical settings. It reviews management of bicuspid valves with calcification, horizontal aorta, coronary artery anomalies, and navigation of difficult angles. Case studies illustrate techniques to optimize commissural alignment and strategies to address...
Paravalvular leak closure - Part 1
17 Nov 2025 – From PCR London Valves 2025
This session focuses on paravalvular leak closure challenges and solutions. It features complex cases such as extraction of plugs jailed between mechanical valves, managing leaks associated with severe annular calcification, aorto-mitral curtain leaks, device embolisation post-TMVR, and device-related haemolysis after closure procedures.
TAVI: unusual complications
16 Nov 2025 – From PCR London Valves 2025
This session examines rare and unusual complications arising from TAVI procedures. Topics include early recognition and management of frozen leaflets, ventricular septal perforation post-valve-in-valve TAVI, acute leaflet dysfunction, aorto-ventricular fistula formation, and percutaneous closure techniques for fistulas involving the right coronary sinus and right ventricle, emphasizing...
TAVI valve-in-valve - Part 4
17 Nov 2025 – From PCR London Valves 2025
This advanced session addresses complex valve-in-valve TAVI procedures, including management of challenging cases involving combined valve-in-valve TAVI and thoracic endovascular aortic repair. It also discusses technical considerations such as retrieval of lost stents in the left main coronary artery and critical aspects of TAV-in-TAV selection, sizing,...
Nightmare mitral interventions
16 Nov 2025 – From PCR London Valves 2025
This session presents complex mitral valve intervention cases highlighting procedural challenges and innovative solutions. It includes management of embolised transcatheter mitral valve replacements (TMVR), bailout redo transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER), complications such as acute hypoxia and atrial wall perforations, and the application of TAVI skills in...
Featured Research - TAVI: valve positioning & aortic anatomy
17 Nov 2025 – From PCR London Valves 2025
This session presents pioneering research on transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI), exploring key topics such as the rise of osteogenic progenitors post-TAVI, the impact of transcatheter aortic valve planar tilt on outcomes, and the comparative results of self- versus balloon-expandable valves in patients with dilated ascending...
Featured research - TAVI: Redo strategies, valve performance & access safety
17 Nov 2025 – From PCR London Valves 2025
This detailed session investigates critical aspects of TAVI procedures including the safety of selective and routine femoral access angiography post-TAVI, outcomes from the ReTAVI registry focusing on redo-TAVI in various valve frames, and a comparative analysis of JenaValve versus Evolut transcatheter heart valves in severe aortic...
Tricuspid valve interventions in complex scenarios
16 Nov 2025 – From PCR London Valves 2025
This session explores tricuspid valve interventions in complex clinical scenarios, emphasizing emerging techniques such as electrosurgical laceration to enable TTVR, emergency TEER for papillary muscle rupture, and expanded options for difficult valve disease. It also addresses procedural challenges when conventional implantation maneuvers fail, transcatheter alternatives for...
Coronary arteries
30 Oct 2017
The coronary arteries arise from the aortic sinuses. Read more...
