Abstract

Mortality and morbidity remain high following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) in dialysis patients or those with low left ventricular ejection fraction. Therapeutic strategy for those with these comorbidities remains unestablished. We had a dialysis patient with peripheral artery disease and low left ventricular ejection fraction, who received successfully scheduled transapical TAVR following sufficient reverse remodeling by 3‐month optimal medical therapy. Our strategy should be validated in a larger robust cohort.
