C-27 | Trends in Baseline Characteristics of Patients with Bicuspid Aortic Valve Stenosis Undergoing Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement

Abstract

Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) disease is the most common congenital heart disease and the main etiology of aortic stenosis (AS) in young adults. Recent studies have suggested that transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) in bicuspid aortic stenosis (BAS) have comparable clinical outcomes to surgical aortic valve replacement. The US FDA recently approved TAVR for BAS. The expansion of TAVR into patients at lower surgical risk is a current topic of interest. We aimed to investigate the trends in baseline characteristics in patients with BAS undergoing TAVR.
