Transcatheter valve in valve (ViV) implantation actually represents a valid alternative to surgical reinterventions in patients with previous surgical aortic valve replacement (AVR). In patients less than 80 years old, it is crucial to correctly position the new valve leaving a feasible and easy access to coronary ostia, both for future percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) than for a future possible TAVinTAV procedure. We report a 71 year old man with prior AVR presented with structural valve deterioration (SVD) leading to severe aortic stenosis. In order to guarantee comfortable coronary access we aligned, the commissures of the new percutaneous valve with the ones of the surgical bioprothesis by reconstructing the headframes of the surgical bioprosthesis with computer tomography (CT) and fluoro-CT.

ObjectiveBlood type A antigen on porcine aortic bioprostheses might initiate an immune reaction leading to an increased frequency of structural valve deterioration in patients with blood type B or O. The aim was to analyse the association between ABO blood type and porcine bioprosthetic aortic valve degeneration.DesignObservational nationwide cohort study.SettingSwedish population-based study.ParticipantsAdult patients (n=3417) who underwent surgical aortic valve replacement and received porcine bioprosthetic aortic valves between 1995 and 2012 from the Swedish Web system for Enhancement and Development of Evidence-based care in Heart disease Evaluated According to Recommended Therapies register. The study database was enriched with information from other national registers.ExposureThe patients were categorised into type A/AB and type B/O blood groups.Primary and secondary outcome measuresPrimary outcome measure was aortic valve reoperation, and secondary outcomes were heart failure and all-cause mortality. We report risk estimates that account for the competing risk of death.ResultsIn total, 3417 patients were identified: 1724 (50.5%) with blood type A/AB and 1693 (49.5%) with blood type B/O. Both groups had similar baseline characteristics. The cumulative incidence of aortic valve reoperation was 3.4% (95% CI 2.5% to 4.4%) and 3.6% (95% CI 2.6% to 4.6%) in the type B/O and the A/AB group, respectively, at 15 years of follow-up (absolute risk difference: −0.2% (95% CI −1.5% to 1.2%)). There was no significantly increased risk for aortic valve reoperation in patients with blood type B/O compared with type A/AB (HR 0.95, 95% CI 0.62 to 1.45). There was no significant difference in absolute or relative risk of heart failure or death between the groups.ConclusionsWe found no significant association between patient blood type and clinical manifestations of structural valve deterioration following porcine aortic valve replacement. Our findings suggest that it is safe to use porcine bioprosthetic valves without consideration of ABO blood type in the recipient.Trial registration numberNCT02276950

Abstract Background Since the first-in-man transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) performed in 2002, the number of procedures has dramatically increased. However, long-term data regarding outcome and valve durability remain poor. Purpose We aimed to evaluate the evolution of 30-day outcomes over years and long-term mortality and valve durability after TAVI. Methods All consecutive patients presenting with severe symptomatic aortic stenosis treated by TAVI in our center were included prospectively. Clinical and echocardiographic follow-up was performed at 30 days and annually thereafter. Survival curves were constructed using Kaplan-Meier analysis. We also evaluated valve durability according to the European standardized definition of structural valve deterioration. Results Between 2002 and 2018, 1530 consecutive patients underwent TAVI including 1285 (84.0%) patients via a femoral approach. A balloon-expandable transcatheter heart valve was predominantly used (1421 patients; 92.9%). The annual transfemoral approach rate increased progressively to reach 93.3%. Age of patients remained stable over time with a global mean age of 83.7±6.5 years old. Logistic EuroSCORE decreased from 49.2±8.2% to 14.3±8.6% (p<0.0001). Thirty-day mortality dramatically decreased below 3% since 2015 and was 0% in 2018. Similarly, major vascular complications decreased from 50.0% in the first year to less than 1% since 2017 (p=0.001). The length of hospital-stay progressively shortened up to a median of 2 days in 2018. The Kaplan-Meier survival estimation was 82.3%, 60.3%, 33.0%; 11.7% and 8.9% respectively at 1, 3, 5, 8 and 10 years. On long-term follow-up the mean aortic gradient remained unchanged (Figure), and only five patients presented a severe prosthetic valve deterioration. Among them, four patients successfully benefited from a valve in valve TAVI procedure. The competing risk analysis at 10 years estimates risk for severe and moderate-or-severe valve deterioration of 1.9±0.9% and 4.3±1.3% respectively. TEE mean transaortic gradient Conclusions Long-term (up to 10 years) follow-up of our large pioneer series of patients treated by TAVI shows a dramatic improvement of outcomes and no warning signs of valve deterioration suggesting very encouraging valve durability, using predominantly, a balloon expandable prosthesis. Further studies are warranted to study valve durability after TAVI before extension to lower risk patients.

Background. Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), widely used as an alternative therapy in patients with severe aortic stenosis, is expected to be offered to low-risk patents with a longer life expectancy. The durability of transcatheter aortic valve is becoming of increasing importance. Method. PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane CENTRAL from the inception to March 2020 were systematically screened for studies reporting on structural valve deterioration (SVD) in TAVR patients. Incidence of SVD was diagnosed according to the latest European consensus as the primary end point. Predictors of SVD evaluated at multivariable analysis and cumulative incidence function (CIF) of SVD were the secondary end point. Result. Twelve studies encompassing 10031 patients evaluating the incidence of SVD were included, with a follow-up between 1 and 8 years. The pooled incidence of SVD was 4.93% (95% CI, 2.75%–7.70%, I2 = 96%) at 1 year and 8.97% (95% CI, 6.89%–11.29%, I2 = 86%) in the long term (≥5 years). Subgroup analysis was performed to identify the valve type that may result in partial heterogeneity. SVD was more frequent in patents with a valve diameter of <26 mm (HR: 3.57, 1.47–8.69), oral anticoagulants (OAC), exposure at discharge (OR: 0.48, 0.38–0.61), or by a disease of renal dysfunction (OR 1.42, 1.03–1.96). Conclusion. SVD represents infrequent events after TAVR in the long term (>5 years), occurring more commonly in renal dysfunction patients, with small valve diameter and without OAC exposure. There may be an underestimation of the incidence if we assume death as a competing risk.
