Abstract:
Cardiac conduction abnormalities and/or atrioventricular (AV) block have been reported as one of the most frequent complications of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). The impairment of AV conduction was resulted from the balloon and valve-induced injury. Patients with right bundle branch block (RBBB) before TAVI operation, receiving the Medtronic CoreValve Revalving System (MCRS) implant and the implantation of valve prosthesis too deep in the left ven-tricular outflow tract have been reported to require permanent pacemaker implantation.
