Combined Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement and Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair Using Transapical Access
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery(2015)
Abstract
Vascular complications remain an important consideration when selecting access for delivery of large endovascular devices. With the advent of transcatheter aortic valve replacement, transapical access has become an acceptable technique when transfemoral or direct transaortic access is contraindicated. We report the use of the transapical approach during thoracic aortic endovascular repair in 2 patients, one of which included concomitant delivery of a transcatheter aortic valve replacement device. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of a hybrid single-stage transcatheter aortic valve replacement and thoracic aortic endovascular repair using transapical access.
