– Not only about hemodynamics, this lecture provides comparisons among three bioprostheses

– Similar clinical outcomes, better hemodynamic results, and shorter ICU stays for rapid deployment valves… but newer bioprosthesis tissue technology may raise the bar even higher

– Minimally invasive: much more than just a small cut

– Already achieved a low mortality rate? Set new goals for new targets related to patient quality of life.

– Always consider… Do you need to be cautious with the sternum? Is the patient obese? Are you an experienced surgeon? Don’t forget to perform an Angio CT scan.

-The “aortic size paradox”: an interesting paradox, indeed

-Length? Diameter? Which should we pay more attention to?

-Be sure to pay attention to genetics, biomarkers, abnormal flow, other risk factors, and more

– Valve-in-valve, TAVI in TAVI, SAVR after TAVI… familiarize yourself with the mid-to-long-term data for each valve type combination, and transparently inform the patients of not only the benefits but also the risks

– Even the experts say, extracting an infected TAVI is extremely difficult, so be sure to choose the original valve wisely
