Outcomes in nonagenarians undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI): data from a nationwide analysis.

CONCLUSIONS: Within nonagenarians with AS, patients treated with TAVI had lower risk of cardiovascular events than matched patients treated medically. The patients undergoing a TAVI at this age were often highly selected and the procedure was associated with acceptable long term outcomes. PMID: 31763981 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
