Abstract

•Stroke is a significant complication of transcatheter aortic valve replacement.•Computed tomography can quantify aortic valve calcification prior to intervention.•Aortic valve calcium on CT was associated with post-TAVR stroke.•This could inform discussions of individual patient stroke risk prior to TAVR.
