Transcatheter versus surgical aortic-valve replacement in high-risk patients.
BACKGROUND The use of transcatheter aortic-valve replacement has been shown to reduce mortality among high-risk patients with aortic stenosis who are not candidates for surgical replacement.

Long-term outcomes after transcatheter aortic valve implantation in failed bioprosthetic valves.
AIMS Due to bioprosthetic valve degeneration, aortic valve-in-valve (ViV) procedures are increasingly performed. There are no data on long-term outcomes after aortic ViV.

Objective: During aortic valve reimplantation, cusp repair may be needed to produce a competent valve. We investigated whether the need for aortic valve cusp repair affects aortic valve reimplantation durability.

Percutaneous Closure of Iatrogenic Ascending Aortic Pseudoaneurysms Following Surgical Aortic Repair
We present a case series of 4 iatrogenic ascending aortic pseudoaneurysms that were all successfully repaired with a percutaneous approach. Pre-procedural imaging, device selection, and procedural techniques are described.

Valve-Sparing Operation in Patients with Aortic Root Aneurysm
Background. Aortic root aneurysm is rare but life-threatening disease which affects not only aortic wall, but aortic valve as well. Valve-sparing operation was developed by Tirone David and gave a chance to save native aortic valve in patients with ...

Surgical or Transcatheter Aortic‐Valve Replacement in Intermediate‐Risk Patients
Background Although transcatheter aortic‐valve replacement (TAVR) is an accepted alternative to surgery in patients with severe aortic stenosis who are at high surgical risk, less is known about comparative outcomes among patients with aortic stenosis ...
