- Abstract
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement ( TAVR) has emerged as a highly effective minimally invasive treatment for symptomatically critical aortic stenosis ( AS) in patients at high or prohibitive surgical risk. We report a case of staged transcatheter management of critical AS combined with an atrial septal defect ( ASD) with attenuated anterior superior rim. The clinical result of this case suggests that both procedures can be safely performed simultaneously. Therefore, combined transcatheter treatment may appear as a possible strategy in patients with concomitant cardiac conditions.
