SAVR versus TAVI: What about the Hemodynamic Performance? An In Vivo and In Vitro Analysis.

Implanted RDVs presented a lower incidence of paravalvular regurgitation and were associated with significantly lower post-procedural transvalvular PGs, especially for small valve sizes. Our data might support the application of rapid deployment aortic valves in patients with small aortic annulus in the TAVI era.
