Emergency treatment of acute decompensated critical aortic stenosis with transcatheter aortic valve implantation

open access: yes, 2020
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is relatively contraindicated in the bicuspid aortic valve, and to our knowledge has not been tried where the true native annulus is of a size far in excess of current device capabilities.
