Women with severe symptomatic aortic stenosis are underrepresented in clinical trials. The Randomized Research in Women All Comers with Aortic Stenosis (RHEIA) trial investigates the balance of benefits and risks of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) compared to surgery in women.

The Evolut Low Risk trial demonstrated that transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) was noninferior to surgery for the primary endpoint of all-cause mortality or disabling stroke at two years. In this new publication, the authors report the five-year outcomes of the Evolut Low Risk trial.

This study compared the perioperative and longitudinal risk-adjusted outcomes of patients aged 65 and older with severe aortic stenosis and concomitant coronary artery disease undergoing either coronary artery bypass grafting with surgical aortic valve replacement (CABG+SAVR) or percutaneous coronary intervention with transcatheter aortic valve repla

This study aimed to compare the clinical and echocardiographic long-term results of edge-to-edge (E-to-E) repair and neochordal repair, both associated with ring annuloplasty, for isolated anterior mitral leaflet lesions using propensity match analysis.

In this article, the authors aimed to assess whether post-implant transcatheter aortic valve prosthesis multi-detector computed characteristics differ between patients with native tricuspid and bicuspid aortic valve stenosis, as well as the effect on valve performance and clinical outcomes.

This retrospective analysis examined trends and outcomes of aortic valve replacement in patients under the age of 65 with aortic stenosis from 2013 to 2021, focusing on transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) versus surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR).

In this study, the authors conducted an in-depth analysis of the health status of patients enrolled in the TRISCEND II pivotal trial (Edwards EVOQUE Transcatheter Tricuspid Valve Replacement: Pivotal Clinical Investigation of Safety and Clinical Efficacy Using a Novel Device) to help quantify the benefit of intervention for these patients.
