Aortic Stenosis Percutaneous Interventions
Abstract
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement is a disruptive technology for the treatment of severe aortic stenosis. It has allowed for the treatment of high-risk and potentially inoperable aortic stenosis patients. The safety and efficacy of transcatheter aortic valve replacement has been evaluated rigorously in multiple pivotal randomized clinical trials. Advancements in the technology with significant improvement in clinical outcomes and safety of the procedure have allowed for the expansion of indications to lower-risk groups. Future development will focus on patient selection and continued device refinement and technique with further expansion to low-risk patients and other clinical indications.
