Transcatheter aortic valve replacement: All patients undergo transfemoral transcatheter aortic valve replacement for aortic stenosis
Study summary
The goal of this observational study is to assess the changes of ascending aortic diameter in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement. The main questions it aims to answer are:
1. whether the ascending aortic diameter increases or remains stable after transcatheter aortic valve replacement, especially in patients with preoperative ascending aortic dilatation;
2. the determinants of postoperative ascending aortic dilatation.
