Background And Objectives: Structural Valve Deterioration (SVD) is the main limiting factor to the long-term durability of the bioprosthetic valves used for Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI), a minimally invasive technique for the treatment of severe aortic stenosis. The aim of this retrospective study is to perform patient-specific computational analyses of blood dynamics shortly after TAVI to identify hemodynamic indices that correlate with a premature onset of SVD which is detected at 5-10 years long-term follow-up exam after TAVI.
Methods: The study population comprises fourteen patients: seven cases with SVD at long-term follow-up were identified and seven cases without SVD were randomly extracted from the same cohort.

Background: Aortic stenosis (AS) is a common heart valve disease, especially in aging populations. While surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) is the standard treatment, many patients are ineligible. Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) offers an alternative, especially for high-risk patients, but is not without complications.
