🧰⚙️🔧TAVI via axillary access: a simple, effective approach

🔗https://t.co/KCQPjl4gG7

When transfemoral access is not an option, the axillary route offers a fully percutaneous alternative for TAVI.

This step-by-step approach shows how to secure access and achieve reliable haemostasis using a combined suture- and plug-based strategy.

Frail patient. Torrential TR. Persistent NYHA III despite optimal medical therapy.

After transient improvement under GDMT, clinical status worsened within 12 months. Surgery was ruled out (prior radiation + frailty) — the Heart Team opted for T-TEER.

Part 2 of this case by @EPTIG & Timm Ubben is now available — with expert review by @DBerlinerMD and
#EBAC accredited (1 CME)⭐
