Popis: BACKGROUND The impact of a horizontal aorta (HA) on adverse events (AE) following in transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is dealt controversially. Using new-generation self-expandable devices, we aimed to reevaluate an appropriate threshold of the aortic root angulation (ARA) in terms of HA and its impact on outcome. METHODS The 466 consecutive patients, who underwent transfemoral TAVR with self-expandable new-generation devices, were analyzed. Patients were classified into cases with HA (ARA ≥ 51°; n = 225; 48%) and without HA (ARA
