Abstract:

Aim — to assess an effectiveness of subclavian approach for transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). Material and methods. The results of 7 TAVI procedures for the period 2010—2017 were analyzed. Critical aortic stenosis was an indication in all cases. All patients had severe comorbidities and moderate EuroSCORE II surgical risk (5,3%). Results. Self-expandable and balloon-expandable prostheses were deployed in 6 and 1 case, respectively. One and six patients underwent TAVI through right and left subclavian arteries, respectively. Mean residual pressure gradient was 10 mm Hg. There were no cases of postoperative atrioventricular blockade, severe aortic regurgitation, contrast-induced nephropathy and vascular complications. Conclusion. Subclavian approach is a good alternative to transfemoral technique for TAVI.
