New-Generation Transcatheter Aortic Valves in Patients With Small Aortic Annuli ― Comparison of Balloon- and Self-Expandable Valves in Asian Patients
Background:Asian patients have smaller aortic annuli. Although 20-mm balloon-expandable (BE) transcatheter heart valves (THV) are manufactured for transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) in these cases, the supra-annular design of self-expandable (SE) THV is considered more suitable; however,...

Zusammenfassung: | Background:Asian patients have smaller aortic annuli. Although 20-mm balloon-expandable (BE) transcatheter heart valves (THV) are manufactured for transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) in these cases, the supra-annular design of self-expandable (SE) THV is considered more suitable; however, real-world comparative data are scarce.Methods and Results:Consecutive TAVI cases (n=330) in a single Japanese center were reviewed. Based on the cutoff for the new-generation 20-/23-mm BE-THV, a small aortic annulus was defined as |
