Transcatheter aortic valve implantation
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation
- Transcatheter aortic valve implantation is to place the artificial valve into the aortic valve area and restore the valve function. It has the characteristics of less trauma and no thoracotomy. This new technique greatly reduces the operation time and improves the success rate of operation, and the patient recovers quickly. This technique is more effective than drug therapy and can significantly improve the life quality of patients, offering hope for the treatment of patients who are unsuitable for surgery or with severe aortic stenosis.
