Aortic valve implant ranscateter in severe aortic stenosis

Implante de válvula aórtica ranscateter en estenosis aórtica severa

Objective: to describe the first case of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) performed at Hospital Infantil Universitario de San José of Bogotá, in a patient with symptomatic severe degenerative aortic valve stenosis with severe systolic dysfunction. Study Design: a case report. Methodology: a 76-year-old woman referred to the hemodynamics service with clinical suspicion for acute coronary syndrome and symptomatic severe aortic stenosis, considered a suitable candidate for interventional management with TAVI. This is the first case of this procedure performed at the hemodynamics service of said hospital. Conclusion: TAVI is a valid option for patients who are deemed at intermediate, high or extremely high risk of complications from surgical aortic valve replacement. The hemodynamics service of Hospital Infantil Universitario de San José of Bogotá, has the necessary healthcare resources to deliver this type of procedures
