Age-Related Outcomes of Valve-in-Valve Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement for Structural Valve Deterioration.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Valve-in-valve transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is a recognized alternative for treating the structural valve deterioration of bioprosthetic valves. Recent guidelines and trials have expanded the indications for TAVR to include younger patients with structural valve deterioration. In this study, we aimed to examine the outcomes of valve-in-valve TAVR across different age groups to understand the age-related clinical outcomes of treating structural valve deterioration following surgical aortic valve replacement and TAVR.

Methods and results

In this retrospective study, we included patients who underwent valve-in-valve TAVR at our center. We compared procedural complications and clinical outcomes among patients <75 years of age (n=99), those 75 to 84 ye
