Defining Aortic Root Anatomy for Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) in the Pakistani Population: Insights From Multicenter Computed Tomography (CT) Evaluation Aortic Root Assessment and Oriented Reference for TAVR in Pakistan (AORTA-PK Registry) Open
Background Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has revolutionized the treatment of aortic stenosis, yet the majority of TAVR devices are optimized for Caucasian and Latin American aortic root anatomies. Unfortunately, data specif…

Case Report: A case of transcatheter aortic valve replacement in a patient with a small aortic annulus using the Acurate Neo2 Open
Small aortic annulus poses a major challenge in aortic valve replacement due to the increased risk of prosthesis–patient mismatch (PPM) and increased surgical risk. In recent years, transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has emerged…
