Absence of OAC, large TAVR prostheses and moderate-severe PVR were predictors for LT. Transvalvular gradients were higher in patients that developed RELM but not HALT. Further studies are warranted to determine the long-term impact of LT on TAVR durability. Prevalence of different sub-types of CT-defined LT (HALT and RELM) and the clinical predictors of developing LT following TAVR. CT computed tomography, HALT hypo-attenuated leaflet thickening, LT leaflet thrombosis, RELM reduced leaflet motion, TAVR transcatheter aortic valve replacement.
