Balloon aortic valvuloplasty: review of the evidence and current indications
Balloon aortic valvuloplasty was introduced over two decades ago as an alternative to aortic valve replacement in elderly patients deemed unsuitable for surgery. Due to high early restenosis rates and no effect on longterm mortality, the procedure’s development stalled. However, with recent technological advances, in particular the advent of the transcatheter aortic valve implantation, there ha...
متن کاملBalloon Aortic Valvuloplasty
Following the description by Lababidi in 1983 of balloon aortic valvuloplasty, it has been adopted by several groups of workers for relief of aortic valve stenosis. The indications for the procedure are peak-to-peak systolic pressure gradients in excess of 50 mmHg with symptoms or ECG changes or a gradient greater than 70 mmHg irrespective of the symptoms or ECG changes. One or more balloon dil...
متن کاملThe role of balloon aortic valvuloplasty in the era of transcatheter aortic valve implantation
Balloon aortic valvuloplasty is recommended in patients not suitable for transcatheter aortic valve implantation/aortic valve replacement (TAVI/AVR) or when such interventions are temporarily contraindicated. The number of performed balloon aortic valvuloplasty (BAV) procedures has been increasing in recent years. Valvuloplasty enables the selection of individuals with severe left ventricular d...
متن کاملPercutaneous balloon aortic valvuloplasty in the era of transcatheter aortic valve implantation: a narrative review
The role of percutaneous balloon aortic valvuloplasty (BAV) in the management of severe symptomatic aortic stenosis has come under the spotlight following the development of the transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) technique. Previous indications for BAV were limited to symptom palliation and as a bridge to definitive therapy for patients undergoing conventional surgical aortic valve ...
متن کاملIn-Hospital Mortality after Balloon Aortic Valvuloplasty
With increasing life expectancies, the burden of aortic valve disease continues to be a major contributor to morbidity and mortality, affecting millions of elderly people [1,2]. Aortic stenosis (AS) begins with a long asymptomatic period [3]. Once symptomatic, survival becomes poor unless the outflow obstruction is relieved [4-6]. Retrospective studies have shown that if the patient experiences...
