What is TAVR (Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement)?
Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) is a minimally invasive procedure to replace a narrowed or diseased aortic valve without open-heart surgery, using a catheter-delivered artificial valve. It is commonly recommended for patients with severe aortic stenosis who are at intermediate to high surgical risk or elderly patients unsuitable for conventional open surgery. TAVR restores normal blood flow, relieves symptoms like breathlessness and chest pain, and significantly improves quality of life and survival.
Who may be considered?
TAVR (Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement) may be considered after a qualified specialist reviews your reports and medical history. Suitability varies from person to person and must be assessed by your treating doctor.
How does it work?
The valve is delivered through a small puncture in the femoral artery in the groin, making it the least invasive and most commonly used TAVR technique.
Transfemoral TAVR
Most PopularThe valve is delivered through a small puncture in the femoral artery in the groin, making it the least invasive and most commonly used TAVR technique.

Risks
Potential risks include vascular access complications, stroke, bleeding, need for a permanent pacemaker, valve leakage (paravalvular leak), and rarely, heart block or kidney injury, though overall complication rates are low in experienced centers.
Alternatives
Alternatives include surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) via open-heart surgery for lower-risk patients, balloon aortic valvuloplasty as a temporary palliative measure, and, for select patients, ongoing medical management of symptoms when intervention is not feasible.
