Key Points Aortic stenosis developed in bicuspid valves is commonly characterized by a complex anatomy TAVR may be considered for high risk patients with bicuspid valve stenosis but procedure is usually technically challenging High (supra‐annular) implantation of self‐expandable TAVR prostheses may be a valuable option for selected patients with bicuspid valve stenosis
