Transcatheter aortic valve implantation can be complicated by iatrogenic acute type B aortic dissection, which is rare but more difficult to detect than acute type A aortic dissection.
Iatrogenic acute type B aortic dissection is a rare complication of TAVI that can be detected early with transesophageal echocardiography and may be successfully managed conservatively.
Absolute Event Rate: 0% vs 0%
Objective: As the number of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) procedures increases, specific complications, including aortic dissection, have been reported. Acute type B aortic dissection (ATBAD) is rare but more difficult to detect during TAVI compared to acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD). This study presents our experience with iatrogenic ATBAD during TAVI.
