TAVI specific sex consideration

View through CrossRef
The impact of sex on baseline characteristics and morphological and clinical presentation of degenerative aortic stenosis has been widely demonstrated but poorly understood. Moreover, differently from valve surgery, where patients were predominantly male, both sexes have been well represented in percutaneous treatment of aortic stenosis (AS), and women appeared to derive greater benefit with transfemoral aortic valve implantation (TAVI) compared to surgical treatment. This review focuses on sex-specific differences in epidemiology, pathophysiology, diagnostic issues, treatment options, and clinical outcomes of degenerative AS. Moreover, we evaluate how sex-based TAVI management, from device selection to procedural tricks, may affect outcomes.
