TAVI for severe, non-calcified aortic regurgitation and narrow aortic root: Description from a case report of a new approach to potentially avoid coronary artery obstruction
Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, 06/29/2012
Dumonteil N et al. – Authros report a case of MCV implantation for severe aortic regurgitation (AR) where the narrow aortic root theoretically precluded the technique. Good procedural outcome was achieved thanks to a strategy of implantation with planned positioning of the prosthesis leaflets away from the coronary arteries.
