Abstract

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) on left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy and diastolic function in patients with severe aortic valve stenosis (AVS). There are few and conflicting data on LV mass remodeling and LV diastolic function after TAVI.
