Midterm Outcomes of Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement in Dialysis Patients With Aortic Valve Stenosis.

CONCLUSIONS: Satisfactory in-hospital outcomes were achieved in dialysis patients after TAVR. Various problems, however, such as complications particular to dialysis patients and valve durability, remained at midterm follow-up. Further studies are recommended to solve these problems, and prudent preoperative assessments should be mandatory. PMID: 31118365 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
