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.
