The DAIC team has learned of the passing of Alain Cribier, MD, FACC, heralded as the man who pioneered the first transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) in 2002, as well as the first transcatheter mitral commissurotomy in 1995 and the first balloon aortic valvuloplasty in 1986. He passed away Feb. 16, 2024 at the age of 79.

From a pool of 37,011 patients, the study identified 2,360 patients under the age of 60 years who underwent these procedures, with 22% receiving TAVR and 78% SAVR. By 2021 almost half of patients younger than 60 years were receiving TAVR rather than SAVR. years after TAVR and 4.9 years after TAVR and 4.9
