Transcatheter valve implantation for patients with aortic stenosis.

Aortic stenosis (AS) is the most frequent valve disease in Europe. It has a predominantly degenerative origin and is therefore mostly present in elderly patients. Valve replacement is the definitive therapy [1]; however, the risk of this treatment may be high in elderly patients with comorbidities. Several registries show that as many as a third of patients with severe valve disease and severe ...

Bicuspid Aortic Valve: An Unusual Cause of Aneurysm of Left Coronary Sinus of Valsalva

Bicuspid aortic valve is traditionally considered an innocuous congenital anomaly. Due to a better and widespread availability of non-invasive imaging techniques, it has come to the fore that 30% of these cases develop complications, viz., valve abnormality (aortic regurgitation and stenosis), and aneurysm of aortic root and ascending aorta. Sinus of Valsalva aneurysm is an uncommon complicatio...

Open issues in transcatheter aortic valve implantation. Part 1: patient selection and treatment strategy for transcatheter aortic valve implantation.

An exponential increase in the use of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) in patients with severe aortic stenosis has been witnessed over the recent years. The current article reviews different areas of uncertainty related to patient selection. The use and limitations of risk scores are addressed, followed by an extensive discussion on the value of three-dimensional imaging for prost...

Quadricuspid aortic valve: a rare cause of aortic regurgitation and stenosis.

Quadricuspid aortic valve is a rare congenital condition that occurs not only as an isolated anomaly, but also with other cardiac defects. We describe a 10-year-old boy whose aortic stenosis was diagnosed during infancy. Transthoracic echocardiography revealed dilation of the left ventricle, valvular and subvalvular aortic stenosis, bicuspid aortic valve, aortic regurgitation, and mitral valve ...

Percutaneous aortic valve implantation in bicuspid aortic valve: A case report

BACKGROUND Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) was known as an alternative technique for treatment of severe aortic stenosis (AS). This technique is controversial in bicuspid aortic valve (BAV). Here, we report TAVI for severe AS in a BAV setting in a patient with serious lung disease. CASE REPORT A 68-year-old woman with a history of coronary artery bypass graft, BAV and severe AS...

Cause of complete atrioventricular block after percutaneous aortic valve implantation: insights from a necropsy study.

Transcatheter aortic valve implantation is being established as an alternative treatment for some patients with symptomatic severe aortic stenosis who are not considered suitable for surgical aortic valve replacement because of prohibitive surgical risk.1–3 One of the potential complications is complete atrioventricular block requiring definitive pacemaker implantation. This complication occurs...
