Aortic Rupture in Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement.

ABSTRACT

This case demonstrates a rare but catastrophic complication of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). In an era where TAVR is now indicated in low-risk patients, serious complication rates are less frequent. It exemplifies the importance of preparedness for vascular injury, with readiness for vascular covered stenting and potential bail-out strategies.
