Overview
TAVR has rapidly expanded to include a broader population with each randomized trial publication, albeit with a focus on transfemoral access. At times the trial data has moved faster than our ability to understand how to apply all options to both our youngest patients and those with high risk features for TAVR (i.e. borderline transfemoral access, small annuli). This webinar will raise important state-of-the-art controversies in the application of aortic valve replacement. The learner will identify new aspects of the therapy to consider when discussing choices with their patients in real-world clinical practice, and to assist in shared decision making.

Learning Objectives
After this webinar, participants will be able to:
- Review data and technique on optimizing arterial transfemoral (TF) access and plan for TF bailout.
- Demonstrate difficult anatomy as interpreted by CT in iliofemorals and review contrast saving techniques to review iliofemoral anatomy.
- Discuss data on valve durability.
- Describe a case-scenario in which TAVR first is controversial but ultimately beneficial for a young patient.
- Compare the benefits and harms of percutaneous interventions with elderly patient at high-risk for TAVR.
