Key result
TAVI case series and literature review detail management for anomalous coronary artery origins.
Why the study?
Coronary artery anomalies are infrequent and only anecdotal reports exist regarding patients with coronary anomalies treated with TAVI.
Is transcatheter aortic valve implantation feasible and safe in patients with anomalous origin of a coronary artery?
Case Report
Is transcatheter aortic valve implantation feasible and safe in patients with anomalous origin of a coronary artery?
Provides a comprehensive overview and case series to guide TAVI in the challenging clinical scenario of anomalous coronary arteries.
Supports TAVI feasibility in anomalous coronaries; hypothesis-generating and should not yet change practice.
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has become a well-established treatment option for elderly patients with symptomatic severe aortic stenosis. Coronary artery anomalies are an infrequent finding and there have only been few anecdotal reports of patients with coronary anomalies treated with TAVI. We here present a comprehensive overview of existing reports in addition to an own case series to facilitate better understanding of this potentially challenging clinical scenario.

Loria et al. (2023) conducted a case report in Symptomatic severe aortic stenosis with anomalous origin of a coronary artery. Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) was evaluated. Transcatheter aortic valve implantation in patients with anomalous origin of a coronary artery is described through a case series and literature overview to facilitate clinical understanding.
