Increased mortality from complications of pulmonary hypertension in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement

Aortic stenosis (AS) leads to pulmonary hypertension (PH) and right ventricle (RV) failure. Our goal was to describe mortality related to postoperative complications in PH patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). Ninety-three TAVR patients were analyzed (controls, sPAP
