Surgical aortic valvuloplasty demonstrated greater gradient reduction, less postoperative and long-term AI, and a lower reintervention rate at 10 years than BAD. There was no difference in survival or AVR reintervention rate. Surgical aortic valvuloplasty is a durable and efficacious intervention and should continue to be considered a favorable choice for palliation of valvular AS.
