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

Small aortic annulus poses a major challenge in aortic valve replacement due to the increased risk of prosthesispatient mismatch (PPM) and increased surgical risk. Despite multiple risk factors for PPM, the patient had a successful outcome without major complications.

Alternative access in transcatheter aortic valve replacement—an updated focused review

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

Aortic Stenosis (AS) is a common condition with an estimated pooled prevalence of all AS in the elderly population at around 12.4%, with that of severe AS estimated to be around 3.4%. In the past, surgical aortic valve replacement was the primary treatment option for severe AS for decades.

Predictors of permanent pacemaker requirement in aortic stenosis patients undergoing self-expanding valve transcatheter aortic valve replacement using the cusp overlap technique

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

IntroductionSince TAVR was approved for lower-risk aortic stenosis (AS) patients, managing post-implantation conduction disturbances has become crucial, especially with self-expanding heart valves (SEV).

Impact of cardiac rehabilitation on pre- and post-operative transcatheter aortic valve replacement prognoses

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is a relatively new treatment method for aortic stenosis (AS) and has been demonstrated to be suitable for patients with varying risk levels.

Predictors, clinical impact, and management strategies for conduction abnormalities after transcatheter aortic valve replacement: an updated review

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has increasingly become a safe, feasible, and widely accepted alternative surgical treatment for patients with severe symptomatic aortic stenosis.

Post?TAVR conduction abnormalities leading to permanent pacemaker implantation: Risk factors, prevention, and management

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology

Abstract Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) often leads to conduction abnormalities, necessitating pacemaker implantation. Procedural factors like transfemoral access and self-expandable valves also increase this risk.

Transcatheter or Surgical Aortic Valve Replacement in Patients with Severe Aortic Stenosis and Small Aortic Annulus: A Randomized Clinical Trial

Circulation

The objectives of this study were to compare the hemodynamic and clinical outcomes between transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) in patients with a SAA.Methods:Prospective multicenter international randomized trial performed in 15 university hospitals.
