Abstract

A TAVI is a medical procedure that involves fitting a valve into the heart to treat aortic stenosis. TAVI stands for Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation. An artificial valve is implanted into the heart through this procedure. A patient from Maldives with symptomatic severe calcific aortic stenosis was admitted for TAVI. Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI) was done on 20.02.20 via the Right Artery approach under using 21.5mm MyVal with good result. There was no residual gradient / paravalvular leak or AV block. The patient tolerated the procedure well and the post procedure period was uneventfull. Post procedure Echo revealed a well seated valve with Aortic valve Gradient coming down from 107/59mmHg to 29/19mmHg with no paravalvular leak. She was mobilised and was discharged in stable condition.
