Multicenter Evaluation of Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement Using either SAPIEN XT or CoreValve: Degree of Device Oversizing by Computed‐Tomography and Clinical Outcomes

Conclusions: Optimal clinical performance of CoreValve and SAPIEN XT appears to be reached with different degrees of oversizing. Certain annular sizes that allow for only moderate or large oversizing, but not both, appear to benefit from a device specific approach. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.
