چکیده

Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) represents a therapeutic option of increasing impact for the treatment of high-risk patients with symptomatic, severe aortic valve stenosis. We report here the case of an 86-year old patient with a cutaneo-pericardial fistula after a transapical TAVI procedure.

Since the fistula was blind-ended no further interventions were made right after the complication was detected. However on 14th postprocedural hour another angiography was performed, because of ...

Transapical aortic valve implantation in patients with previous cardiac surgery.

BACKGROUND This study compared surgical outcomes of patients with previous cardiac surgery undergoing transapical transcatheter aortic valve implantation (PCS-TA-TAVI) with those of patients undergoing transapical transcatheter aortic valve implantation as an initial procedure (initial TA-TAVI) by using propensity analysis. METHODS From January 2005 through January 2013, 267 consecutive high-...

Transapical Implantation of a 2nd-Generation JenaValve Device in Patient with Extremely High Surgical Risk

Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) is performed in patients who are poor surgical candidates. Many patients have inadequate femoral access, and alternative access sites have been used such as the transapical approach discussed in this paper. We present an elderly and fragile patient not suitable for surgery for unacceptable high risk, including poor ventricular function, previous myo...

Image-Guided Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation Assistance System

Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is a recently developed surgical technique to treat symptomatic aortic valve stenosis in elderly and high-risk patients (Eltchaninoff et al., 2008; Ferrari & von Segesser, 2010). Compared to the standard aortic valve replacement surgery, the TAVI limits the surgical access to either a small minithoracotomy (transapical TAVI) or femoral approach (tr...
