Despite the widespread use of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) for moderate and high-risk patients with severe aortic stenosis, it is utilized less frequently in patients with bicuspid aortic valves (BAV). Orthotopic heart transplant (OHT) donors tend to be younger and may have undiagnosed BAV. We present a case of successful TAVR in a patient with BAV thirteen years after OHT.
尽管经导管主动脉瓣置换术（TAVR）在中高危重度主动脉瓣狭窄患者中广泛应用，但在二叶式主动脉瓣（BAV）患者中的使用频率较低。原位心脏移植（OHT）供体往往较年轻，可能患有未被诊断出的BAV。我们报告一例在原位心脏移植13年后成功接受TAVR治疗的BAV患者。
