Abstract

Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is associated with the risk of embolic stroke and of diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI) lesions. The embolic risk in valve in valve procedures (VIV-TAVR) is uncertain. This study aimed to evaluate the risk for brain lesions after TAVR
