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).

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. In recent years, transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has emerged as a popular alternative to the traditional surgical aortic valve replacement.

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

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

However, with the compelling evidence on the safety and efficacy of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), it has become the gold standard treatment option for many patients with symptomatic severe AS. Transfemoral access has been the preferred method for transcatheter heart valve delivery.
