Advances in transcatheter structural heart interventions and temporary mechanical circulatory support (MCS) have led to increased demand for alternative sites for large-bore vascular access.1 Percutaneous axillary artery (AA) access is an appealing alternative to standard femoral access when the patient has iliofemoral peripheral arterial disease (PAD), obesity or there is an expected device…

This article aims to provide an updated comparative review, addressing the respective strengths and weaknesses of different alternative transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) approaches.
The transfemoral (TF) access is favoured by international guidelines on TAVI because of its reported superiority to the transthoracic approach.1–3 In spite of the progress in miniaturisation of new…

Dr Uri Landes (Rabin Medical Center, Petah Tikva, IL) discusses the results from the 2V-TAVR study. This retrospective cohort study used data from an international registry of 21 298 to assess incidence, causes and outcomes associated with urgent implantation of a supplementary valve during transcatheter aortic valve replacement.

Abstract
Femoral access remains a vital route for many cardiac and non-cardiac procedures, including those involving the use of large delivery systems. In the common femoral artery access is extremely important to minimise complications and optimise use of closure devices. Dissatisfaction with haemostasis achieved by manual compression stimulated development of VCDs that provide quick and…

Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) and endovascular aortic repair (EVAR) are increasingly being used as therapeutic options for patients with severe aortic stenosis ineligible for surgery and with aortic aneurysm with suitable anatomical features. Despite encouraging results from randomised studies and registries regarding the pursuit of endovascular treatment in selected patients,…
