Clinical outcomes of coronary occlusion following transcatheter aortic valve replacement: A systematic review.
Coronary occlusion (CO) is a rare but serious complication following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) with limited published data. We sought to evaluate the immediate and short-term outcomes of CO complicating TAVR. ⋯ CO following TAVR is associated with a high procedural and 30-day mortality rate despite aggressive resuscitative measures including percutaneous coronary intervention.
