Due to a large technical improvement in the past decade, transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has expanded to lower-surgical-risk patients with symptomatic and severe aortic stenosis. While mortality rates related...
Conclusion/Relevance: Due to a large technical improvement in the past decade, transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has expanded to lower-surgical-risk patients with symptomatic and severe aortic stenosis. While mortality rates related to TAVR are decreasing, the prognosis of patients is still impacted by ischemic and bleeding...

WASHINGTON -- Among the bioprostheses used in aortic valve replacement, trancatheter ones were not necessarily more prone to the kind of valve deterioration that can result in poor clinical outcomes,...
Unicuspid Aortic Valve in Patients Undergoing the Ross Procedure - PubMed

UAV is a separate unit characteristic by a distinct hemodynamic pathology and generated aortopathy. It is not associated with a higher risk of reoperation or new onset of aortic regurgitation...
Conclusions: UAV is a separate unit characteristic by a distinct hemodynamic pathology and generated aortopathy. It is not associated with a higher risk of reoperation or new onset of aortic regurgitation after the Ross procedure in the mid-term postoperatively. At the current state, UAV remains acceptable for the Ross procedure.

Long-term outcomes of primary aortic valve repair for isolated congenital aortic stenosis in children - PubMed
Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35430079/
Aortic valve repair achieves relief of congenital aortic stenosis with very low early mortality and excellent long-term survival, even in neonates. Although nearly half of the patients required aortic valve...
Conclusions: Aortic valve repair achieves relief of congenital aortic stenosis with very low early mortality and excellent long-term survival, even in neonates. Although nearly half of the patients required aortic valve reoperation by 10 years, two-thirds of the patients remain free from aortic valve replacement. An optimal outcome was more...
