Key result
Balloon aortic valvuloplasty with concomitant PCI was associated with lower long-term mortality than BAV with concomitant coronary angiography in severe aortic stenosis (28.5% vs 51.0%; P=0.03).

Should not yet change BAV practice in severe AS; hypothesis-generating for concomitant PCI and needs prospective confirmation.
Cohort (n=97)
Does concomitant PCI during balloon aortic valvuloplasty improve long-term outcomes and survival in patients with severe aortic stenosis?
Absolute Event Rate: 28.5% vs 51%
p-value: p=0.03
Concomitant PCI during balloon aortic valvuloplasty in patients with severe aortic stenosis does not increase procedural complications and may improve long-term survival compared to BAV with angiography alone.
Daniec et al. (2017) conducted a cohort in Severe aortic stenosis (n=97). Balloon aortic valvuloplasty with concomitant percutaneous coronary intervention vs. Balloon aortic valvuloplasty with concomitant coronary angiography was evaluated on long-term mortality (p=0.03). Balloon aortic valvuloplasty with concomitant PCI was associated with lower long-term mortality than BAV with concomitant coronary angiography in severe aortic stenosis (28.5% vs 51.0%; P=0.03).
