Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are currently witnessing the third decade of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI), a well-established approach to treating aortic valve diseases, especially aortic valve stenosis. The number of TAVI patients is growing rapidly, and its indications are expanding. Thus, it is essential that we enrich our knowledge in this field by collecting further data and outcomes.
This Special Issue will present the latest advancements in all aspects of TAVI, including clinical outcomes, new techniques, new devices, and comparisons with other approaches.
Current cutting-edge research focuses on indications, new devices, new methods, advancements in transcatheter interventions in aortic valve insufficiency or endocarditis, and re-interventions and probable complications.
We welcome the submission of original articles, reports on novel treatment strategies and advances in decision making, clinical outcome studies, comparative studies, narrative reviews, scoping reviews, and systematic reviews and meta-analyses.
