Impact of different aortic valve calcification patterns on the outcome of transcatheter aortic valve implantation: A finite element study

Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) can treat symptomatic patients with calcific aortic stenosis. However, the severity and distribution of the calcification of valve leaflets can impair the TAVI efficacy. Here we tackle this issue from a biomechanical standpoint, by finite element simula...
