Computed tomography evaluation of the aortic annulus guides prosthesis selection and impacts early residual aortic regurgitation following transcatheter aortic valve implantation.
Does computed tomography-based evaluation of aortic annulus and prosthesis size prevent early residual aortic regurgitation after transcatheter aortic valve implantation?
The study aims to evaluate the role of CT in prosthesis selection and prevention of residual aortic regurgitation in TAVI patients.
Absolute Event Rate: 0% vs 0%
OBJECTIVES: Computed tomography (CT) is an increasingly utilized method for the evaluation of patient suitability for transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). The aim of this study was to analyse the role of CT in the choice of prosthesis and the prevention of residual aortic regurgitation (RAR).
