TAVR Valve Embolization and Dissection

Imaging findings

A transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) valve migrated into the ascending aorta, causing a localized dissection flap in the distal ascending aorta and arch.

Key takeaways

Heavily calcified bicuspid aortic valves may pose a higher risk for valve embolization during TAVR procedures.
