While surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) remains the gold standard for treating severe bicuspid aortic stenosis (AS), transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is emerging as a viable alternative in selected BAV anatomies. Initial experiences with first-generation transcatheter heart valves (THVs) showed the feasibility of this technique, but were associated with lower device success rates and higher complications, such as paravalvular leak (PVL) and pacemaker implantation. Advancements in second- and third- generation THVs, together with better pre-procedural imaging assessment and growing operator experience, have significantly enhanced TAVI outcomes in BAV patients, with results now comparable to those seen in tricuspid aortic valves (TAVs). Proper patient selection, pre-procedural sizing, and device implantation are key to improving TAVI success in BAV. Recent registry data on contemporary THV platforms demonstrate improved procedural success, hemodynamic performance, and the safety of TAVI in BAV. However, higher rates of PVL, pacemaker implantation, and strokes remain concerns. Ongoing advancements in THV design and procedural techniques will further enhance outcomes for this challenging population. Up to the present, there are no dedicated THVs for BAV, but the latest-generation THVs offer promising results.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/jcm14082838","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,20]],"date-time":"2025-04-20T20:24:16Z","timestamp":1745180656000},"page":"2838","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Review Article: Contemporary Transcatheter Heart Valves for TAVI in Bicuspid Aortic Anatomy"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"14","author":[{"given":"Chrysavgi","family":"Simopoulou","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Groupe Cardio-Vasculaire Interventionnel, Clinique Pasteur, 45, Avenue de Lombez, 31000 Toulouse, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5538-5222","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Omar","family":"Oliva","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Groupe Cardio-Vasculaire Interventionnel, Clinique Pasteur, 45, Avenue de Lombez, 31000 Toulouse, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1092-8518","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Vincenzo","family":"Cesario","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Groupe Cardio-Vasculaire Interventionnel, Clinique Pasteur, 45, Avenue de Lombez, 31000 Toulouse, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nicolas","family":"Dumonteil","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Groupe Cardio-Vasculaire Interventionnel, Clinique Pasteur, 45, Avenue de Lombez, 31000 Toulouse, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Didier","family":"Tchetche","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Groupe Cardio-Vasculaire Interventionnel, Clinique Pasteur, 45, Avenue de Lombez, 31000 Toulouse, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Chiara","family":"De Biase","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Groupe Cardio-Vasculaire Interventionnel, Clinique Pasteur, 45, Avenue de Lombez, 31000 Toulouse, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,20]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"2789","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jacc.2009.12.068","article-title":"Bicuspid aortic valve disease","volume":"55","author":"Siu","year":"2010","journal-title":"J.
