Article Synopsis
- The study examines outcomes of three aortic valve replacement (AVR) techniques: transcatheter (TAVI), minimally invasive (MIAVR), and conventional (CAVR), focusing on all-cause mortality rates.
- A total of 27 studies with over 16,000 patients were analyzed, revealing that TAVI initially had lower mortality compared to CAVR, but this advantage diminished after 37.5 months.
- MIAVR demonstrated significantly lower mortality rates than both TAVI and CAVR, although TAVI showed consistent benefits specifically in patients undergoing transfemoral (TF) procedures; however, more research is needed for conclusive results.
