Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation versus Surgical Aortic Valve Replacement in Low-Risk Patients: A Propensity Score Matched Analysis

Explore this paper's citation graph

Summary

TAVI yielded similar short-term outcomes compared with SAVR despite higher rates of permanent pacemaker implantation and paravalvular leakage ≥ moderate, but inferior long-term survival; this emphasizes the need for long- term results from randomized controlled trials before TAVI can be broadly expanded to younger low-risk patients.
