Long-Term Clinical Impact of Paravalvular Leak Following Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation.
J Clin Med

National Center for Global Health, Istituto Superiore di Sanitá, 00161 Rome, Italy.
Paravalvular leak (PVL) was initially recognized as one of the most common complications after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) and has been linked to adverse clinical outcomes, including mortality. This study aims to assess the long-term clinical effects of PVL in patients undergoing TAVI with the latest generation of transcatheter aortic valves, as part of the national observational prospective multicenter study OBSERVANT II. OBSERVANT II included all consecutive patients with severe aortic stenosis who underwent TAVI across 28 Italian centers from December 2016 to September 2018.

: In the presence of porcelain aorta (PA), transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has become a class I therapeutic indication for the treatment of severe aortic valve stenosis. To date, few studies have analyzed the clinical outcomes of TAVR in PA patients. We aim to analyze the calcification patterns of the thoracic aorta in PA patients and to evaluate their clinical implications for TAVR procedures.

The detection of unexpected findings (UF) during CT scans of patients undergoing TAVR is frequent; however, it is unclear whether such findings have a clinical impact on the TAVR pathway. We conducted a retrospective, single-center observational study enrolling patients who were candidates for TAVR. All enrolled patients underwent a CT scan before valve implantation.

A significant proportion of elderly patients referred to transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) do not experience an improvement of their symptoms. New tools are needed to better select candidates and avoid futile procedures. The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of a new echocardiographic classification which assesses the consequences of chronic elevation of afterload on mortality and hospitalizations for heart failure (HF) in patients with severe AS undergoing TAVR.

: Diffuse myocardial fibrosis and altered deformation are relevant prognostic factors in aortic stenosis (AS) patients. The aim of this exploratory study was to investigate the relationship between myocardial strain, and myocardial extracellular volume (ECV) in patients with severe AS with a photon-counting detector (PCD)-CT. : We retrospectively included 77 patients with severe AS undergoing PCD-CT imaging for transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) planning between January 2022 and May 2024 with a protocol including a non-contrast cardiac scan, an ECG-gated helical coronary CT angiography (CCTA), and a cardiac late enhancement scan.
