With the growing utilization of TAVR over the last decade, it is important to examine the impact of adoption of TAVR on the number of SAVRs and total number of AVRs. We observed a linear increase in the total number of AVRs performed in the United States that was mainly driven by a marked diffusion of TAVR, whereas the number of SAVRs remained relatively stable. The number of TAVRs increased in all age categories. In contrast, the number of SAVRs increased modestly in those aged <75 years and declined in the older age categories. Our results highlight a previously untreated or undertreated population of patients that were not suitable candidates for surgery but are now being treated with TAVR.
