ABSTRACT
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has taken the world of cardiovascular therapies by storm. The possibility of implanting aortic valves without recourse to sternotomy or cardiopulmonary bypass has been embraced by cardiologists, surgeons and patients alike as a revolution in management. First performed in 2002 by Alain Cribier, the technique has exploded into common use during the last three years, such that over 20,000 implants have now been undertaken worldwide. This article discusses complications of TAVI, their avoidance and management.
