Transcatheter aortic valve replacement has become a mainstream therapeutic option for patients with severe aortic stenosis who are at intermediate risk or high risk for surgical valve replacement. Computed tomography (CT) is now the standard imaging modality for preoperative vascular access planning an aortic annular sizing. This article reviews the established and potential future roles of CT in transcatheter aortic valve replacement.

Objective: To characterize trends and outcomes of aortic valve replacement in patients <65 with aortic stenosis between 2013 and 2021.
Methods: This retrospective analysis included 9,557 patients who underwent biological aortic valve replacement in California, New York, and New Jersey from 2013 through 2021. Patients were stratified by approach: transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) versus surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR).

Aortic stenosis is a prevalent disease that is treated with either mechanical or bioprosthetic valve replacement devices. However, these implants can experience problems with either functionality in the case of mechanical valves or long-term durability in the case of bioprosthetic valves. To enhance next generation prosthetic valves, such as biomimetic polymeric valves, an improved understanding of the native aortic valve leaflet structure and mechanical response is required to provide much needed benchmarks for future device development.

Background: Surgical management of patients with severe aortic regurgitation (AR) in the setting of significantly impaired left ventricle (LV) function generally carries very high operative risk. The aim of this study is to assess the short and long-term outcomes of aortic valve replacement (AVR) in a selected young Moroccan population.
Materiel And Methods: This is a retrospective study between January 2008 and June 2022 including all patients who underwent AVR for massive isolated AR with an LV ejection fraction EF ≤35%.
