1.1 Purpose The last decade has substantially broadened treatment options for patients with
thoracic aortic pathology involving the aortic arch. Traditionally, treatment of aortic arch …

Paravalvular leak (PVL) is a frequent complication of transcatheter aortic valve replacement
(TAVR) and is seen at a much higher rate after TAVR than after conventional surgical aortic …

Background Although transcatheter aortic-valve replacement (TAVR) is an accepted
alternative to surgery in patients with severe aortic stenosis who are at high surgical risk …

Aims Owing to new evidence from randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in low-risk patients
with severe aortic stenosis, we compared the collective safety and efficacy of transcatheter …

Background: Prosthesis–patient mismatch (PPM) after surgical aortic valve replacement
(AVR) for aortic stenosis is generally associated with worse outcomes. Transcatheter AVR …

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the incidence, predictors, and clinical
outcomes of permanent pacemaker (PPM) implantation following transcatheter aortic valve …

Background: The semiquantitative Clinical Frailty Scale (CFS) is a simple tool to assess
patients' frailty and has been shown to correlate with mortality in elderly patients even when …

Background: Conscious sedation is used during transcatheter aortic valve replacement
(TAVR) with limited evidence as to the safety and efficacy of this practice. Methods: The …

Background—We aimed to determine the incidence, predictors, clinical characteristics,
management, and outcomes of infective endocarditis (IE) after transcatheter aortic valve …
