Key result
Redo-TAVR using the self-expandable Evolut platform achieved a 94.5% device success rate, with low in-hospital mortality (2.1%) and stroke (2.7%).
Why the study?
Data on the safety and efficacy of redo-TAVR (TAV-in-TAV) remain limited as indications expand to younger and lower-risk patients.
Is redo-TAVR with the Evolut platform safe and effective in patients with failing transcatheter aortic valves?

Supports feasibility of Evolut valves in failing TAVs; hypothesis-generating and should not yet change practice.
Cohort (n=292)
Yes
Is redo-TAVR with the Evolut platform safe and effective in patients with failing transcatheter aortic valves?
Redo-TAVR with the Evolut platform demonstrates high device success and a favorable short-term safety profile, with low rates of in-hospital mortality and stroke, and no coronary obstruction.
Attizzani et al. (2021) conducted a cohort in Failing transcatheter aortic valves requiring redo-TAVR (n=292). Redo-TAVR with Evolut R, Evolut PRO or Evolut PRO+ valve was evaluated on Device success. Redo-TAVR using the self-expandable Evolut platform achieved a 94.5% device success rate, with low in-hospital mortality (2.1%) and stroke (2.7%).
