All procedures were performed by a heart team, consisting of a cardiovascular surgeon with peripheral vascular and interventional experience and an interventional cardiologist on site. Valvular type and size, access route and backup strategies were assessed by the heart team according to the preoperative CT-imaging. Baseline characteristics, periprocedural data, complications and 30-day outcomes were analyzed concerning the access route using Mann-Whitney-U-test or Fisher\u00b4s exact test.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>Analyzed were 167 consecutive patients (81 (76\u201385) years; 53.3% male). 48 (28.7%) of these had severe peripheral artery disease. 130 (77.8%) procedures were performed via a percutaneous transfemoral approach, 13 (7.8%) via a femoral cut-down and 4 (2.4%) via a transaxillary access. For 20 procedures (11.9%) a transapical access was used. 106 patients (72%) with transvascular and all patients with transapical access received a balloon-expanding valve, whereas 41 (28%) patients with transvascular access received a self-expanding prosthesis. No coronary occlusion was seen. Annular rupture occurred in one patient (0.6%), valve displacement in two patients (1.2%). Totally 5 (3%) access femoral arteries were stented and 8 (4.8%) needed a surgical reconstruction. 30-day mortality was 2.99%.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>On site interventional and cardiovascular surgical expertise may minimize VC and CSC following TAVI.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1186\/s13019-025-03407-9","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,3]],"date-time":"2025-04-03T10:00:06Z","timestamp":1743674406000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Reducing access complications in an interdisciplinary structural heart program"],"prefix":"10.1186","volume":"20","author":[{"given":"Dinah Maria","family":"Berres","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Markus","family":"Schl\u00f6micher","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Boris","family":"Dickmann","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Thomas","family":"Buck","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Justus Thomas","family":"Strauch","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Farhan","family":"Ahmad","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Horatiu","family":"Coman","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Peter Lukas","family":"Haldenwang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,2]]},"reference":[{"key":"3407_CR1","unstructured":"German Heart.
