Background:
Limited data exist on strain changes after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) in patients with aortic regurgitation (AR).
Case Summary:
Three patients with AR undergoing TAVI showed an initial reduction in global longitudinal strain (GLS), followed by sustained GLS improvement within the first year.
Discussion:
Findings align with those of surgically treated patients with AR. There is a possible superiority of GLS to left ventricular end-diastolic diameter ratio in assessing patients with severe volume overload.
