The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Launches New Valve Surgery Risk Calculators

DAIC

SAVR after TAVR Surgical aortic valve replacement after prior TAVR is the fastest-growing cardiac surgery procedure in the U.S. The STS used recent national data from the STS Adult Cardiac Surgery Database between 2012 and 2023 to analyze outcomes of SAVR after previous TAVR.

Outcomes Following Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement for Aortic Stenosis in Patients With Type 0 Bicuspid, Type 1 Bicuspid, and Tricuspid Aortic Valves

Circulation: Cardiovascular Interventions

BACKGROUND:Data concerning the outcomes of transcatheter aortic valve replacement in type 0 bicuspid aortic stenosis (AS) are scarce. Self-expanding transcatheter heart valves were used in the majority of patients (n=1160; 91.4%). In the matched population, differences in mortality (30 days: 4.2%

Association of Bovine Arch Anatomy With Incident Stroke After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement

Journal of the American Heart Association

BackgroundAcute ischemic stroke complicates 2% to 3% of transcatheter aortic valve replacements (TAVRs). This study aimed to identify the aortic anatomic correlates in patients after TAVR stroke.Methods and ResultsThis is a single‐center, retrospective study of patients who underwent TAVR at the Mayo Clinic between 2012 and 2022.

Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (from inception to standard treatment): a single-center observational study

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

Background Treatment of severe aortic stenosis with transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) was introduced in 2002. The 13-year period was divided into period 1 (2008–2012), period 2 (2013–2017), and period 3 (2018–2021).
