3 BAV morphology & Classification Type 0: 26.7% Type 1: 68.3% Type 2: 5.0% Sievers et al. J Thorac Cardiovasc Surg 2007 Mylotte D., JACC. 2014;64(22):

4 BAV Classification in TAVI Era Jilaihawi et al. JACC imag. 2016;9: Jilaihawi et al. JACC imag. 2016

5 - Frame expansion at different levels Bicuspid valves CT Scan, post implantation Annular level Supra annular level

6 Challenges in bicuspid valves Often heavily calcified Incomplete valve expansion ( calcified raphe ) Paravalvular leak Annulus rupture Angulated aortic root Frequently associated with ascending aortic aneurysm Risk of rupture/dissection Oval shaped valve area and eccentric annulus Risk of paravalvular leak Long-term durability of the TAVI valve?

7 Sizing in bicuspid What to consider for sizing: Virtual basal ring or EOA or Intercommissural distance? Annular sizing or supraannular CT based measurement or balloon sizing to identify effective orifice area ( EOA), - best oversizing range?

8 How Sizing in bicuspid Annulus Measurement with Valve Leaflets analysis Bicuspid Type 1 ( Raphé RCS / LCS) EOA or Functional diameter Analysis of Leaflets Anatomy (Bicuspid, Ca++) should be added to annulus measurement to optimize valve size choice and define optimal valve position before TAVI Functional Annulus Diameter

9 Key discussion points Not just Downsizing ---- but how to measure for optimal / best sizing! Should we use annular or supra-annular sizing? If supra-annular, which level above basal plane? Anchoring zone? Role/impact of Intercommissural distance and of the calcified Raphe ( > 4mm)? Balloon sizing for identify the effective orifice area (EOA) and anchoring level? Risk of under sizing Risk of over sizing o Pop-out o PVL o Valve embolization 9 CoreValve Evolut R 34 mm In-service Medtronic - Confidential o Annular rupture o Pacemaker rate o Valve dislodgement o Excess frame/leaflet strain

24 Evolut R in bicuspid valve anatomies Bicuspid aortic valve for TAVI requires valve frame implantation accordingly to leaflet level to ensure suprannular functioning of the self expandable THV Possibility of resheathing, repositioning and supraanular functioning are relevant advantages Self expanding nitinol valvular frame can expand even in the post implant period to conform to the anatomy THV in BAV required often post-dilatation (no balloon upsizing) for optimal THV expansion (TEE or multiplanar view is helpful)

25 Take home message Identify a bicuspid valve morphology and criterias! Sizing concept in bicuspid still under evaluation (value of balloon sizing, CT based supra-annular sizing, intercommissural distance, raphe length) Not only Downsizing best and correct sizing (EOA) needed Implant depth in relation to the anchoring zone (different from annular plane to maintain suprannular functioning! Balloon sizing can be useful for identify the effective orifice area (EOA),for sizing and to identify the anchoring level
