Transcatheter bicuspid versus tricuspid aortic valve replacement in patients with a small aortic annulus: an observational study
TAVR provides comparable clinical and haemodynamic outcomes for bicuspid and tricuspid AS with a small aortic annulus, despite greater procedural complexity in BAV cases. These findings support cautious expansion of TAVR to select BAV patients when performed with meticulous procedural planning.
