Zielsetzung: To evaluate structural changes of the aortic root after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) with computed tomography angiography (CTA). Material und Methodik: 138 of 235 consecutive patients (58.7%, 68 women, mean age 82.8 ± 5.9 (range 65 – 94) years, mean Euro Score 17.8 ± 10.3, mean STS score 5.7 ± 4.6) who underwent TAVR with an Edwards Sapien XT valve (n = 21,86,29 (23,26,29 mm)) were examined with contrast-enhanced retrospective ECG-gated dual-source CTA within 6.4 ± 7.3 (range 0 – 82) days after intervention. Structural changes of the aortic root were compared with pre-TAVR CTA and e…
