Survival penalty in patients undergoing transcatheter versus surgical aortic valve replacement: is it just a question of frailty? Insights from a large cohort with demographic matching Open
Background Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) are the reference treatments for aortic stenosis. Conflicting data exist on late survival results of these two techniques. While randomis…

Is there an outcome penalty linked to guideline-based class-I indications for valvular surgery? long-term analysis of patients with high gradient severe aortic stenosis Open
Background Current ACC/AHA guidelines recommend aortic valve replacement (AVR) as class-I triggers in patients with high-gradient severe aortic stenosis (HGSAS) in presence of symptoms and/or left ventricular dysfunction (LVEF50%, n=853), …
