Article Synopsis
- * Factors influencing the success of egg freezing include the woman's age, the number of eggs retrieved, and individual health conditions, but potential risks exist for both the mother and embryo during the in vitro fertilization process.
- * There is a growing interest in egg freezing, particularly in countries like the USA and Israel, but issues like high costs, lack of official data in some regions like Greece, and varying legal structures highlight the need for more research and a universal legal framework to support women's reproductive choices.
Purpose: Development of AV-block is a frequent complication associated with transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). To date little is known about the predictive value of the HV-interval prior to TAVI with respect to the risk of AV-block development.
Methods And Results: HV-interval was determined in 25 consecutive elderly patients with severe aortic valve stenosis (AS) before and immediately after TAVI.
