Usefulness of membranous septum length in the prediction of major conduction disturbances in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement with different devices.

Assessment of the MS length prior to TAVR might serve as an additional tool to guide clinical decision-making and appropriate device selection to reduce the risk of CD.
