Valve-in-valve transcatheter aortic valve implantation versus repeat surgical aortic valve replacement in patients with a failed aortic bioprosthesis
24 Sep 2021
Structural valve deterioration remains the Achilles heel of both SAVR and TAVI. Since indications for TAVI have expanded to low-risk patients in 2019, this clinical scenario poses a significant conundrum for physicians and surgeons, as the number of patients undergoing aortic valve interventions continues to grow...

Addressing the challenges of small annuli patients with the Evolut Platform
27 Sep 2021 – From PCR Tokyo Valves 2021
Recognizing that Asian patients, especially women with aortic stenosis, are smaller and have smaller annuli than European ones, for instance, this session discusses the challenges of treating these patients, among them prosthesis patient mismatch, annulus rupture, coronary occlusion, or vascular complication. In addition, the speakers will draw...
