Aortic valve regurgitation (AR) often occurs after left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation. Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is a viable alternative to surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) in this cohort, most of whom have a high surgical risk profile. Procedure outcome and survival were analyzed.
