NA

Brief Summary

Aim of this study is to evaluate whether microsurgical repair or replacement of the aortic valve is a treatment option for a subgroup of patients suffering from aortic Stenosis.

Detailed Description

Stenosis of the aortic valve leads to a narrowing of the valve, consequently to low blood flow from the heart into the Aorta, and is associated with symptoms like fatigue, breathlessness, dizziness, f...

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • I1. Patients with symptomatic native aortic valve stenosis and age ≥18 years
  • I2. Aortic valve area (AVA) ≤ 1 cm2 or indexed AVA ≤ 0.6 cm2/m2, mean aortic gradient \< 40 mmHg and stroke volume index (SVI) \< 35ml/m2

MDCT aortic valve calcium score men \> 2000AU, women \> 1200AU OR the likelihood criteria are fulfilled (symptoms without other explanation and LV hypertrophy; age \< 70 yrs., AVS \< 0.8 cm2; SVI \< 35ml/m2 confirmed by 3D TOE, MRI or invasive; reduced LV longitudinal function without other reason)
  • I5. Heart team agrees on eligibility for TAVR
  • I6. Written informed consent
  • I7. Negative pregnancy test in women with childbearing potential

Exclusion

  • E1. Hemodynamic instability
  • E2. Cardiogenic shock
