Title
Surgical aortic valve replacement remains a valid option to treat aortic valve disease in the era of transcatheter aortic valve implantation : an opinion
Author
Abstract
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation has become a major treatment for aortic valve disease in elderly high-risk patients and is expanding into a younger low-risk population. Concurrently, newer rapid deployment and highly durable bioprosthetic valves were developed for surgical implantation. At the same time, less invasive approach has become an option for many patients. These developments indicate that aortic valve surgery will remain an important option for the treatment of a highly lethal and invalidating aortic valve disease.
