Transapical Aortic Valve Implantation in High-Risk Aortic Stenosis: A Case Report

Yetmiş iki yaşında bayan hasta göğüs ağrısı ve solunum sıkıntısı şikayetiyle ekokardiyografiye yönlendirildi, sonrasında ciddi aort darlığı tanısı konuldu. Klinik bakış açısıyla AVR bu vakada çok riskliydi, bu yüzden tedavi seçeneği sol ön torakotomiyle transapikal yaklaşımla TAVI'ydi. Bu olgu sunumunda ülkemizde bu yeni prosedürle olan deneyimimizi paylaşıyoruz.

Yüksek Riskli Aort Darlığında Transapikal Aort Kapak İmplantasyonu: Olgu Sunumu

A 72-year-old female patient with respiratory distress and chest pain was referred for echocardiography after which a severe aortic stenosis was diagnosed. From clinical perspective an AVR would have carried too much risk in this case, therefore TAVI with transapical approach via left anterior thoracotomy was the treatment of choice. In this case report, we describe our experience with this new procedure in our country.
