At present TAVR is a valid alternative to treat different risk groups of patients with severe aortic stenosis. Among the different valves, there are two types, the self-expanding (SEV) and the balloon expandable (BEV) valves, that are the most implanted and the most researched by randomized studies across different risk groups. There are different generations<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2022/12/16/is-there-any-difference-between-modern-valves-and-self-and-balloon-expandable-valves/" title="Read more" >...</a>

Valve-in-Valve Shows Good Evolution after 2 Years
The degeneration of bioprostheses in aortic position occurs at approximately after 10 to 15 years. In this scenario, the treatment of choice used to be redo surgery, but with the evolution of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), it became a valid alternative with a level IIa B evidence. While there are currently multiple analyses of<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2022/12/02/valve-in-valve-shows-good-evolution-after-2-years/" title="Read more" >...</a>

Edge-to-Edge Repair Reduces Hospitalization and Mortality Rates in Secondary Mitral Valve Regurgitation?
Severe secondary mitral valve regurgitation is associated to hospitalization and mortality. The COAPT study has shown the superiority of guideline directed medical therapy at maximal tolerated doses according to guidelines (GDMT) plus edge-to-edge transcatheter repair (TEER) versus GMDT alone. However, at present there is no information on the impact of hospitalizations and their relationship to<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2022/11/22/edge-to-edge-repair-reduces-hospitalization-and-mortality-rates-in-secondary-mitral-valve-regurgitation/" title="Read more" >...</a>

Apixaban and Valve Thrombosis after TAVR
TAVR has been associated with early valve thrombosis, characterized by thrombus formation in the prosthetic valve with or without valve dysfunction. This dysfunction is related to leaflet thickening and reduced motion, reduced effective orifice area, or increased transvalvular gradient. A multidetector CT scan allows the dynamic assessment of valves and ruling out fibrosis vs. thrombosis. <a href="https://solaci.org/en/2022/09/14/apixaban-and-valve-thrombosis-after-tavr/" title="Read more" >...</a>
