Article Synopsis
- Two transcatheter heart valves, the 29-mm Sapien-3 and the 34-mm Evolut-R, were studied in 833 patients with large and extra-large aortic annuli undergoing valve replacement.
- Results showed a high overall device success rate of 94.3%, with some complications being more common in the Evolut-R group, such as significant paravalvular leaks and valve embolization.
- Both valves demonstrated good short-term and 1-year performance, indicating their safety and feasibility for patients with large aortic annuli, and may help inform future valve selection.
