TAVI embolisation - Part 2
18 Nov 2025 – From PCR London Valves 2025
This session focuses on managing complications related to TAVI valve embolisation and migration. It includes detailed case discussions on balloon-expandable valve dislocation into the left ventricle, intra-annular migration managed by valve-in-valve techniques, and successful strategies for self-expanding valve migration. The session underscores the importance of readiness...
TAVI: technical tips and tricks
18 Nov 2025 – From PCR London Valves 2025
This session provides practical technical guidance for TAVI procedures emphasizing multimodality imaging for ultra-low contrast implantation, contrast-free techniques tailored for type 0 bicuspid aortic valves, and innovative bailout strategies for rapid pacing failure. It also covers advanced access management approaches in contrast-zero TAVI and current commissural...
Mitral TEER in complex scenarios
18 Nov 2025 – From PCR London Valves 2025
This session presents complex clinical scenarios in mitral transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER), illustrating advanced procedural techniques and multidisciplinary management. Topics include on-circuit aspiration thrombectomy to facilitate TEER, combined interventions addressing multiple valve pathologies, timing considerations in healed mitral endocarditis, and TEER application in end-stage idiopathic cardiomyopathy....
Complications of mitral TEER
18 Nov 2025 – From PCR London Valves 2025
This session addresses complications associated with mitral transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER), showcasing innovative bailout methods such as snare-assisted retrieval of undeployed devices, managing leaflet perforations with latest-generation devices, cases of valve-adjacent tears, mechanical support considerations when pumps fail, and the clinical impact of iatrogenic fossa ovalis...

TAVI-in-TAVI - Part 2
18 Nov 2025 – From PCR London Valves 2025
This session explores the evolving field of TAVI-in-TAVI interventions, presenting complex cases such as transfemoral TAVI-in-TAVI for degenerated transapical clip-fixed valves in transplanted hearts, management of very late TAVI migration in Bentall de Bono patients, TAVI for degenerated Evolut R valves, stepwise approaches to coronary protection...
TAVI complications - Part 5
18 Nov 2025 – From PCR London Valves 2025
This session highlights acute and urgent complications following TAVI implantation, including myocardial infarction, cardiac arrest, and challenging catheterization scenarios. It provides detailed case analyses illustrating the limits of TAVI procedures and the critical importance of prompt recognition and intervention in adverse events, enhancing clinician preparedness for...
Curious TAVI scenarios - Part 3
18 Nov 2025 – From PCR London Valves 2025
This session examines unusual and challenging clinical scenarios following TAVI, including presentations of cyanosis, evolving valvular defects such as growing paravalvular holes, atypical imaging findings, paradoxical transvalvular gradients switching from aortic regurgitation to stenosis resolved by postdilatation, and bicoronary protection techniques in patients with low coronary...
