Transcatheter and surgical aortic valve replacement in patients with bicuspid aortic valve

ConclusionsIn patients with stenotic BAV, TAVR seems to achieve early and mid-term results comparable to SAVR. Type 1 N-L and type 2 L-R/R-N BAV morphologies had higher incidence of PVR. Larger studies evaluating different phenotypes of BAV are needed to confirm these findings.Clinical trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT03385915.Graphic abstract
