“…Another major complication within that group is valve thrombosis, which can be visualized on CTA as crescentshaped, hypoattenuated leaflet thickening ( Figure 11 ). The second group comprises vascular complications at the access site or along the chosen vascular route, which include dissection and arteriovenous fistula ( 10 ) , the most common complication in this group being pseudoaneurysm. The third group comprises all other complications, including periprocedural and postprocedural stroke ( 11 ) .…”

Aortic valve stenosis is the most common acquired valvular heart disease. Transcatheter aortic valve implantation, also known as transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), is an important treatment option for symptomatic aortic stenosis in patients at any level of surgical risk. The role of computed tomography angiography (CTA) has expanded considerably in recent years, and it has now become the imaging method of choice for the planning of TAVR. Therefore, radiologists should understand the main aspects of this imaging modality, including the appropriate technique and protocol to acquire reliable CTA images and to create a useful radiology report. The aim of this study was to review the most important aspects of CTA for TAVR planning.

“…Vascular complications account for 2% to 17% of all adverse events and ascending aortic dissection (AAD) is reported in only 0.2% to 0.3% of patients. 3 We present a case of asymptomatic AAD in a patient who underwent TAVI in 2020.…”
