P7 TELOMERE LENGTH AND AORTIC VALVE CALCIFICATION
Background: Short telomere length (TL) is associated with atherosclerosis development. Aortic valve stenosis, an age-related disease characterized by narrowing of the aortic opening, is mainly caused by aortic valve calcification.

Transcatheter aortic valve implantation vs. surgical aortic valve replacement for treatment of symptomatic severe aortic stenosis: an updated meta-analysis. [PDF]
AIMS Owing to new evidence from randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in low-risk patients with severe aortic stenosis, we compared the collective safety and efficacy of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) vs.

Never Too Late: A Case Report on Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation in a 97-Year-Old Patient
Aortic valve stenosis is a well-recognized valvular problem in the aging population. Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is becoming an increasingly popular treatment alternative to surgical aortic valve replacement for frail elderly ...

Temporal Trends and Outcomes in Utilization of Transcatheter and Surgical Aortic Valve Therapies in Aortic Valve Stenosis Patients with Heart Failure [PDF]
INTRODUCTIONS & AIMS: Heart failure (HF) is a common comorbidity in patients undergoing surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) and transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). We sought to access the temporal trends and outcomes of TAVR or SAVR in HF

Percutaneous dual-valve intervention in a high-risk patient with severe aortic and mitral stenosis
Aortic stenosis is the most frequent and mitral stenosis is the least frequent native single-sided valve disease in Europe. Patients with the combination of severe symptomatic degenerative aortic and mitral stenosis are very rare.

There is a long latent period in the clinical course of aortic valve stenosis in adults. Symptoms usually occur in the case of critical stenosis, when aortic orifice area is under 0.7 cm2 (0.4 cm2/m2). In this study 78 patients with critical aortic valve stenosis were investigated.
