Abstract
We report the case of an 82-year-old patient with symptomatic severe aortic stenosis and calcified proximal left anterior descending (LAD) artery stenosis who underwent a transfemoral transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) without complex percutaneous coronary intervention. Before TAVI, a positron emission tomography/computed tomography assessment confirmed a reduced global coronary flow reserve (CFR), more pronounced on the LAD...
