Overview
Aortic valve replacement procedure is the mainstay of treatment of aortic stenosis as it improves both symptoms and life expectancy. Minimally invasive methods of treatments such as percutaneous aortic balloon valvotomy (PABV) maybe the best alternative for surgery in patients whom have severe comorbidities and whom considered to have a highest risk surgery. Transcatheter aortic valve implantation is another good alternative as well, although both have their own limitations.
Indications
ACC/AHA guidelines concluded that percutaneous aortic balloon valvotomy (PABV) is not a substitute for valve replacement in adults in all cases. although there are some exceptions. ACC/AHA guidelines below for percutaneous aortic balloon valvotomy (PABV) indicate the presence of two settings in which such procedure is indicated.

Class IIb1. Aortic balloon valvotomy might be reasonable as a bridge to surgery in hemodynamically unstable adult patients with AS who are at high risk for AVR. (Level of Evidence: C) 2. Aortic balloon valvotomy might be reasonable for palliation in adult patients with AS in whom AVR cannot be performed because of serious comorbid conditions. (Level of Evidence: C) Class III1. Aortic balloon valvotomy is not recommended as an alternative to AVR in adult patients with AS; certain younger adults without valve calcification may be an exception. (Level of Evidence: B) |
