Transcarotid TAVR for Severe Bicuspid Aortic Stenosis With Virtually Atretic Coarctation of the Thoracic Aorta.
Abstract
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement by alternate access sites allows for treatment of patients with unfavorable anatomy for a transfemoral approach. To our knowledge, we present the first reported case of successful transcatheter aortic valve replacement via the transcarotid approach in a 65-year-old man with a symptomatic severe bicuspid aortic valve stenosis and virtually atretic coarctation of the thoracic aorta.
