Suitability for Transcarotid Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement in the Japanese Population

Key Result

Transcarotid TAVR shows promising suitability in selected Western populations, but its suitability in the Japanese population remains insufficiently studied.

Key Points

• To assess the suitability of transcarotid transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) in the Japanese population.
• Reviewed existing data on TAVR outcomes in Western populations
• Analyzed the applicability of these outcomes to the Japanese population
• Identified gaps in current research regarding TC TAVR suitability
• Transcarotid TAVR shows favorable outcomes in selected populations
• Limited data available on Japanese population outcomes
• Need for further studies to determine suitability in Japan
