Valvular and perivalvular thrombus after TAVR: Risks and Outcomes

Cardiology Update

Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is the standard treatment for severe aortic stenosis, but post-TAVR leaflet thrombus, identified by hypoattenuated leaflet thickening (HALT), poses potential risks like cerebral thromboembolic events. had thrombus at any aortic valve complex.

Impact of untreated CAD on TAVR outcomes

Cardiology Update

The optimal management of concomitant chronic obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) in transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) recipients remains a debated topic. While some advocate for pre-TAVR percutaneous coronary intervention, others adopt an expectant approach. Original article: Persits I et al.
