Abstract

Aortic valve percutaneous and surgical interventions are growing, and aortic valve repair may be an alternative to aortic valve replacement in selected aortic valve disease. Imaging is essential to decide optimal moment and type of procedure depending of aortic valve anatomy. Intraoperative echocardiography (IOE) is of paramount importance to achieve best acute and long-term results and avoid complications. In the present chapter, main IOE indications in aortic valve procedures will be reviewed.
