Propensity-matched analysis compares outcomes of transcatheter versus surgical aortic valve replacement in pure native aortic regurgitation, highlighting treatment safety for off-label use.
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is well-established for severe aortic stenosis (AS) while its application for pure native aortic regurgitation (AR) was previously off-label and technically challenging. Comparative data between TAVR and surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) are limited. Therefore, we aimed to compare patient characteristics and outcomes of off-label TAVR vs. SAVR use among patients with pure native AR.
