Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) in patients with anomalous coronary arteries is feasible. Meticulous preprocedural planning using cardiac computed tomography (CT) is crucial for successful coronary alignment during TAVR.
Area of Science:
- Cardiology
- Interventional Cardiology
- Cardiac Surgery
Background:
- Anomalous coronary arteries are uncommon in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR).
- Maintaining future coronary access and redo-TAVR options is vital, especially for younger patients.
