Cedars Sinai Medical Center, Los Angeles, California, USA. Electronic address:
This updated Heart Valve Collaboratory framework addresses the growing concern for transcatheter valve failure (TVF) following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). With the increasing volume of redo-TAV and surgical TAV explantation, there is a critical need for standardized pathways and protocols for evaluating TVF using echocardiography and cardiac computed tomography (CT) angiography. This document clarifies prior definitions of bioprosthetic valve deterioration and bioprosthetic valve failure in a practical, imaging directed context for TAVR.

Senile scleral plaques are localized, calcified deposits typically occurring bilaterally in elderly patients and are often asymptomatic. They usually appear near the insertion of the rectus muscles and are associated with age-related changes in the sclera. In rare cases, a senile scleral plaque can occur unilaterally and may mimic the appearance of an intraocular foreign body (IOFB) especially in a post-traumatic case.
