Featured research - TAVI: Predictive tools, AI innovation and reintervention strategies
17 Nov 2025 – From PCR London Valves 2025
This session presents cutting-edge research in TAVI, covering the development of predictive models for clinical valve thrombosis, comparative analyses between self-expandable and balloon-expandable valves from the Greek TAVI registry, and the emerging role of AI-guided Heart Team decisions. It also examines outcomes of reintervention strategies following...
TAVI: vascular complications
16 Nov 2025 – From PCR London Valves 2025
This session examines vascular complications associated with transfemoral TAVI procedures, featuring challenging cases such as initial procedural obstacles, complex post-TAVI vascular events, and unusual complications. It also explores advanced techniques like intravascular lithotripsy to optimize TAVI outcomes in patients with severe calcific iliofemoral disease.
TAVI valve-in-valve - Challenging clinical scenarios
17 Nov 2025 – From PCR London Valves 2025
This session focuses on the complexities of valve-in-valve TAVI procedures, highlighting challenging clinical scenarios such as managing severely regurgitant rapid deployment valves and degenerated stentless bioprostheses. It provides detailed insights into overcoming procedural barriers and strategies for complex valve-in-valve transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) interventions.
TAVI: high coronary risk - Part 2
16 Nov 2025 – From PCR London Valves 2025
This session presents advanced strategies to mitigate high coronary risk during valve-in-valve TAVR procedures, including the LLAMACORN technique and chimney stenting to prevent coronary obstruction. It discusses management of misaligned prostheses, complex aortic and coronary anatomies, and innovative approaches such as stent crush techniques to ensure...
TAVI: alternative access
17 Nov 2025 – From PCR London Valves 2025
This session addresses alternative access routes for TAVI in patients with challenging vascular anatomies. It includes innovative approaches such as transapical TAV-in-TAV procedures, transcaval implantation in emergency settings, and techniques for patients with hostile iliofemoral access, showcasing adaptive strategies when conventional access is not feasible.
TAVI: challenging anatomies
17 Nov 2025 – From PCR London Valves 2025
This session explores the management of challenging anatomical conditions in TAVI procedures. Topics include strategies for difficult self-expandable valve delivery angles, addressing complications occurring during and after TAVI, and approaches for patients with severe kyphosis or complex structural abnormalities such as aneurysms and septal anomalies.
Complex mitral and tricuspid TEER
16 Nov 2025 – From PCR London Valves 2025
This session highlights complex cases in mitral and tricuspid transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER), addressing challenges such as septal obstacles in patients with old atrial septal occluders, management of residual atrial septal defects post-mitral valve-in-ring replacement, and innovative multidisciplinary approaches. It also covers hybrid transapical mitral valve-in-valve...
The index valve matters: optimal index TAVI for a lifetime of possibilities
