Detailed information about the dynamic geometry of the left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) is of great importance for transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI), since these valves utilize the LVOT as a landing zone for optimum placement and fixation. The LVOT is generally considered circular in shape and stable in its conformation. However, recent studies indicate that this may not be the case.
