Abstract

Background: Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is aortic annuli >29 mm represent a special technical challenge since common balloon-expandable (BE) transcatheter heart valves (THV) are approved for aortic annuli ≤29 mm. However, treatment of aortic annuli above this limit is possible by overfilling of the deployment balloon of the most common BE THV. The aim of this study was to analyze outcomes of patients undergoing TAVI using BE THV and aortic annuli >29 mm.
