Popis: Introduction: There is limited data on trans-catheter aortic replacement (TAVR) outcomes in patients with low gradient-preserved ejection fraction aortic stenosis (LGpEF). Our study aims to compare baseline characteristics and procedural outcomes in patients with LGpEF vs. high gradient severe aortic stenosis (HGAS). Methods: Patients who underwent TAVR at our institution were divided in 2 groups: 1) HGAS (aortic valve area (AVA) < 1cm 2 , mean gradient (MG) > 40 mmHg); 2) LGpEF (AVA < 1cm 2 , MG Results: A total of 140 patients with HGAS (53% female, 81±9 years old) and 73 patients with LGAS (51% female, 80±9.5 years old) were identified. In multivariable analyses, there was no statistically significant difference in mortality between HGAS vs. LGpEF (HR 0.53, 95% CI 0.21-1.3; p=0.16) (Figure). PVL was independently associated with increased mortality in HGAS (HR 2.9, 95% CI 1.2-7.3; p=0.02) but this effect was not observed in patients with LGpEF. Conclusions: After adjusting for relevant patient characteristics, TAVR outcomes in patients with LGpEF were similar to those with HGAS at 1-year follow-up.
