Aim: Aortic valve replacement (AVR) in patients with prior cardiac surgery might be challenging. Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) offers a promising alternative in such patients. We therefore aimed at comparing the outcomes of patients with aortic valve diseases undergoing TAVR versus those undergoing surgical AVR (SAVR) after previous cardiac surgery.
Methods And Results: MEDLINE, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Central Register were searched. Seven relevant studies were identified, published between 01/2011 and 12/2015, enrolling a total of 1148 patients with prior cardiac surgery (97.6% prior CABG): 49.2% underwent TAVR, whereas 50.8% underwent SAVR. Incidence of stroke (3.8 versus 7.9%, =0.04) and major bleeding (8.3 versus 15.3%, =0.04) was significantly lower in the TAVR group. Incidence of mild/severe paravalvular leakage (14.4/10.9 versus 0%, < 0.0001) and pacemaker implantation (11.3 versus 3.9%, =0.01) was significantly higher in the TAVR group. There were no significant differences in the incidence of acute kidney injury (9.7 versus 8.7%, =0.99), major adverse cardiovascular events (8.7 versus 12.3%, =0.21), 30-day mortality (5.1 versus 5.5%, =0.7), or 1-year mortality (11.6 versus 11.8%, =0.97) between the TAVR and SAVR group.
Conclusions: TAVR as a redo procedure offers a safe alternative for patients presenting with aortic valve diseases after previous cardiac surgery especially those with prior CABG.

Clinical value of aortic arch morphology in transfemoral TAVR: artificial intelligence evaluation.
Int J Surg
January 2025
Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, Xijing Hospital, Xi'an, Shaanxi, China.
Background: The impact of aortic arch (AA) morphology on the management of the procedural details and the clinical outcomes of the transfemoral artery (TF)-transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has not been evaluated. The goal of this study was to evaluate the AA morphology of patients who had TF-TAVR using an artificial intelligence algorithm and then to evaluate its predictive value for clinical outcomes.
Materials And Methods: A total of 1480 consecutive patients undergoing TF-TAVR using a new-generation transcatheter heart valve at 12 institutes were included in this retrospective study.

Background: Access-related vascular complications (VCs) after percutaneous transfemoral transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) are associated with poor clinical outcomes and remain a significant challenge despite technological advances. The aim of this study was to identify anatomic predictors of access-related VCs after TAVR on preprocedural contrast-enhanced multidetector computed tomography (MDCT).

Epicardial fat tissue, a hidden enemy against the early recovery of left ventricular systolic function after transcatheter aortic valve implantation.
Int J Cardiol Heart Vasc
February 2025
Department of Cardiology, Leiden University Medical Center, Leiden, the Netherlands.
Background: Epicardial fat tissue (EFT) is an active organ that can affect cardiac function and structure through endocrine, paracrine, and proinflammatory mechanisms. We hypothesized that greater thickness of EFT may harm the recovery of left ventricular (LV) systolic function in patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS) and reduced LV ejection fraction (EF ≤ 50 %) undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI).
Methods: A sixty six patients with severe AS and 20 % ≥ LVEF ≤ 50 % who underwent TAVI were included.

Guangdong Cardiovascular Institute, Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital Ganzhou Hospital, Guangdong Academy of Medical Sciences, 341000 Ganzhou, Jiangxi, China.
Background: Prognosis assessments for transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) patients remain challenging, particularly as the indications for TAVI expand to lower-risk patients. This study assessed the prognostic value of the tricuspid regurgitation impact on outcomes (TRIO) score in patients after TAVI.
Methods: This single-center study included 530 consecutive patients who underwent TAVI.
