Key Points Valve in valve TAVI with valve fracture in 19 mm bioprosthetic valves is clinically effective. Careful multidisciplinary personalized evaluation for each patient is needed to prevent coronary occlusion. Longer term data for a larger number of patients are needed, from the transcatheter valve therapy (TVT) registry.
