Alain G. Cribier
07 Nov 2017
In 2002, Alain Cribier revolutionised the field by introducing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) as a complementary technique to surgery. Find out more about his early life and studies.
First FIM Percutaneously Implanted Heart Valve (PHV) implantation on 16 April, 2002
07 Nov 2017
On April 16, 2002, at the Charles Nicolle University Hospital in Rouen, France, the Interventional Cardiologist, Professor Alain Cribier performed the first transcatheter aortic valve replacement procedure in the world. He used a Prosthetic valve thrombosis (PVT) percutaneous heart valve.

Aortic stenosis prevalence and balloon aortic valvuloplasty
08 Nov 2017
The transformation in the field of interventional cardiology is unprecedented. Today, interventional cardiology encompasses an ever-growing list of diagnostic and therapeutic percutaneous procedures performed in the cathlab.
World's first angioplasty patient is still going strong
16 May 2017
Forty years ago, Andreas Grüntzig performed the world’s first coronary angioplasty (PCI)—fundamentally changing the management of coronary artery disease. Bernhard Meier, who worked with A. Grüntzig and actually identified the patient for the procedure, talks to The Daily Wire about this first procedure and about his...
