Post-procedural conduction disorders following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) still remain frequent, especially using the largest self-expandable device (Medtronic Corevalve Evolut R TM , 34 mm, STHV-34). We, therefore, assessed previously described, predictive factors of permanent pacemaker (PPM) implantation in the context of the STHV-34, including calcification distribution, implantation depth and membranous septum length (MSL).
