Key result
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation is associated with concerns regarding adverse cerebrovascular events, including silent ischemic events and clinically apparent stroke, which are explored in this review.
Why the study?

Alerts clinicians to post-TAVI cerebrovascular risks; leaves open targeted mitigation strategies for silent and clinical events.
Hynes et al. (2012) conducted a review in Severe calcific aortic stenosis. Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) was evaluated on Cerebrovascular events (silent ischemic events and clinically apparent stroke). Transcatheter aortic valve implantation is associated with concerns regarding adverse cerebrovascular events, including silent ischemic events and clinically apparent stroke, which are explored in this review.
