Percutaneous aortic valve implantation ( TAVI ) has emerged as an alternative for patients with severe aortic stenosis and high surgical risk. While this technique was improved over the time, residual paravalvular regurgitation<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2013/09/26/automatic-measurement-of-the-aortic-annulus-by-tac-more-precisely-to-choose-the-correct-valve-size/" title="Read more" >...</a>

Aortic Valvuloplasty in the transcatheter aortic valve implantation era 

Original title:&nbsp;Emerging indications, in-hospital and long-term outcome of balloon aortic valvuloplasty in the transcatheter aortic valve implantation era.&nbsp;Reference:&nbsp;Francesco Saia et al. EuroIntervention 2013;8:1388-1397 Until a few years ago, aortic valvuloplasty had been abandoned by many centers due to its limited results and frequent complications. The current guidelines recommend aortic valvuloplasty to treat patients with symptomatic<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2013/05/21/aortic-valvuloplasty-in-the-transcatheter-aortic-valve-implantation-era/" title="Read more" >...</a>

The impact of permanent pacemaker implantation in patients undergoing percutaneous aortic valve replacement.

Reference:&nbsp;Buellesfeld y colaboradores (JACC in press). Percutaneous aortic valve replacement (AVR) is an innovative technique for the treatment of severe aortic stenosis (SAS); this technique has been incorporated with great enthusiasm in clinical practice, particularly for patients with excessive surgical risks. Due to the proximity of the aortic valve, AV node and His bundle, there<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2012/10/01/the-impact-of-permanent-pacemaker-implantation-in-patients-undergoing-percutaneous-aortic-valve-replacement/" title="Read more" >...</a>

Estenosis aórtica: prevalencia, directrices, nuevos tratamientos y datos actuales.

Estudios epidemiol&oacute;gicos han determinado que una de cada ocho personas de 75 a&ntilde;os o mayores sufren de estenosis a&oacute;rtica (EA) moderada o severa.1 Varios sondeos han mostrado que muchos pacientes con EA severa no se derivan a un equipo cardiol&oacute;gico para evaluar una sustituci&oacute;n de la v&aacute;lvula.2 La sustituci&oacute;n de v&aacute;lvula a&oacute;rtica (SVA) quir&uacute;rgica es<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2011/01/01/estenosis-aortica-prevalencia-directrices-nuevos-tratamientos-y-datos-actuales-2/" title="Read more" >...</a>
