Two teaching points that most people are missing in these comments 1. Valve height is not important here. Native leaflet height is. A lower deployment would not change anything. 2. The catheter may pin the native leaflet. You cannot decide based on this angio. Deploy or IVUS.

This is typical post BASILICA. The final angio with the worrying radiolucent line shows that BASILICA was necessary. The brisk flow shows that BASILICA worked. If you’re worried, IVUS. Snorkel stenting is not benign so only stent if the IVUS shows leaflet against the guidewire.

A long anterior mitral leaflet can cause LVOT obstruction after TMVR even when the Neo-LVOT is large. This can be treated by percutaneously cutting the redundant leaflet tip seen in the cartoon using transcatheter electrosurgery (Rescue LAMPOON). Or prevented with LAMPOON upfront

My learning points from this session: 1. Percutaneous options exist for TAV-TAV patients at risk of coronary obstruction (low S3 in Evolut; BASILICA) 2. Consider surgical leaflet excision + direct TAVR vs. TAVR explant + SAVR in patients unsuitable for transcatheter options.

“You are so lucky with your imager” says a visiting structural attending observing @LinWangMDNY guide me through a LAMPOON ViMAC PVL closure case. Most programs don’t have an interventional imager. We have 6 excellent ones! And lots of work to do. Come join a great team.

This important series, together with a series from @emoryhealthcare @AdamGreenbaumMD VC Babaliaros et al, shows that RF of the septum: 1. Has a 100% pacemaker rate 2. Doesn’t increase the LVOT much Therefore we’ve abandoned this approach. Congrats to the team for this pub.

BASILICA (ie leaflet laceration to prevent coronary obstruction) will be performed more and more using dedicated devices like ShortCut and others, and will be key in the lifetime management of patients with aortic valve disease. Congratulations to the team!

@Babar_Basir @AdamGreenbaumMD @CathElectroSurg @PedroMDMSc @TiberioFrisoli If you go to an IC/structural program that doesn’t do transcaval access, are there any training courses to learn transcaval before going into practice? Or are there only step-by-step vid/paper and proctoring

Therefore subgroups are hypothesis generating at best. Second, no correction made for statistical chance so only point estimates for the many subgroups given in NEJM. Presentations and ads don’t undergo the same rigour, unfortunately, so a p value has snuck in.

#BeijingValves2024 packed with live cases! Great to show a complex LAMPOON valve-in-MAC. Key points: 1. Identifying anatomy that is good for valve in MAC (smooth, circular, to minimise PVL and ensure anchoring) 2. LVOT obstruction can typically be managed (LAMPOON +/- SESAME)
