Aortic valve, Heart Valves and Outcomes

Case Report: A case of transcatheter aortic valve replacement in a patient with a small aortic annulus using the Acurate Neo2

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

FEBRUARY 5, 2025

Small aortic annulus poses a major challenge in aortic valve replacement due to the increased risk of prosthesispatient mismatch (PPM) and increased surgical risk. In recent years, transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has emerged as a popular alternative to the traditional surgical aortic valve replacement.

What Are the Implications of Choosing a TAVR-First Strategy in the Lifetime Management of Aortic Stenosis?: A Critical Review of TAVR-Explant- and Redo-TAVR

Circulation: Cardiovascular Interventions

JANUARY 22, 2025

Some patients with aortic stenosis may require multiple valve interventions in their lifetime, and choosing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) as the initial intervention may be appealing to many. If their transcatheter heart valve degenerates later in life, most will hope to undergo redo-TAVR.
