The NOTION-2 trial compared TAVI and SAVR in young, low-risk patients with severe tricuspid and bicuspid aortic stenosis. It found similar outcomes for tricuspid AS, but potential higher risks with TAVI for bicuspid AS.

The study discusses the decreasing use of balloon post-dilatation following TAVI, with newer technologies and increasing operator experience reducing the need for this procedure to around 20% of cases.

This study suggests that traditional clinical risk factors cannot predict high-risk coronary plaques, but the presence of these high-risk plaques is consistently associated with worse clinical outcomes regardless of the patient's overall risk profile.

This study found that traditional risk scores, such as the TRS-2P score, failed to predict the presence of high-risk plaques in a specific patient population with significant coronary artery disease, highlighting the need for advanced imaging techniques and personalized risk assessment.

A 73-year-old female with prior rheumatic valve disease and tricuspid annuloplasty underwent bicaval valve implantation for massive tricuspid regurgitation, and later required a tricuspid valve-in-ring procedure due to structural valve deterioration.

This study evaluated the validity of the VARC-HBR criteria for predicting bleeding risk in TAVI patients. The criteria effectively identified distinct subgroups with a stepwise increase in major bleeding risk, but had moderate predictive performance for individual risk.
