This bench study suggested that BVF performed after ViV offers the largest haemodynamic benefit without any long-term trade-offs in terms of THV performance or structural valve damage. #EIJBestOf ow.ly/JGcL50N0A35

This first-of-a-kind report combining hydrodynamic testing, multimodality imaging, and histological assessment on explanted failed TAV found that functional stenosis can occur to a similar extent in the absence of leaflet calcification. bit.ly/3KPrXat #JACCINT #TAVR

In patients undergoing valve-in-valve (ViV) interventions for failed surgical bioprosthetic valves, performing bioprosthetic valve fracture (BVF) after transcatheter heart valve (THV) implantation, compared to BVF performed before THV implantation or no BVF, resulted in better
