Three-dimensional printing improves the understanding of complex structures of cardiac diseases, allowing for enhanced planning and simulation of the procedure. This case, demonstrating the effective percutaneous closure of a TAVR-related ARV fistula facilitated by the use of 3D printed anatomical models in the pre-procedural phase, highlights the technology's potential in advancing patient-specific treatment approaches.
