Key result
Balloon-expandable and self-expanding valves show comparable outcomes in TAVI for bicuspid aortic stenosis.
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is increasingly used in patients with bicuspid aortic stenosis (AS), although the optimal valve type remains uncertain. This meta-analysis compares clinical and procedural outcomes between balloon-expandable valves (BEV) and self-expanding valves (SEV).
