Coronary Angiography and Percutaneous Coronary Intervention Post Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation with Self-Expanding CoreValve

Introduction: Coronary artery disease is common in patients with severe aortic stenosis. As transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) moves into intermediate risk patients, coronary angiography (CA) and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) post TAVI will become increasingly common. Selective coronary re-access has been reported to be particularly challenging with the self-expanding CoreValve.
