摘要:Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR)has emerged as an effective alternative to su-rgical aortic valve replacement in symptomatic aortic stenosis (AS).[1,2] Approximately one in five cases of AS are emergent with acute decompensation of cardi-ac function;[3] therefore, emergent TAVR is an essential approach for severe AS patients with acute condition.[4,5] According to the Transcatheter Valve Therapy registry, an emergent state is defined as a situation that requires immediate aortic valve intervention due to continuous, intractable cardiac damage, with or without hemodyn-amic instability, and no response to any form of medic-ation therapy except for cardiac intervention.[4] To date, although there are still some disputes about the indi-cation of emergent TAVR, in clinical practice, it is an eff-ective mean to save patients' lives.
