  • Angiographic Functional Scoring of Coronary Artery Disease Predicts Mortality in Patients With Severe Aortic Stenosis Undergoing TAVR

    Abstract

    Background/purpose

    Coronary artery disease (CAD) is common in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), although its prognostic significance is questionable. Significant CAD stratified using SYNTAX score (SS) has been associated with greater mortality, yet it is unknown whether the functional impact of CAD also impacts outcomes in this cohort. DILEMMA score (DS) is a validated angiographic functional scoring tool that correlates with fractional flow reserve and instantaneous wave-free ratio.
