Transaortic Valve Replacement
Patient Education from Capital Cardiology AssociatesTransaortic Valve Replacement (TAVR)
Heart valves regulate the flow of blood through the heart. If a poorly-functioning valve cannot be repaired, it may be replaced with a mechanical or biological valve. Any of the four heart valves can be damaged, but the mitral and aortic valves are the ones most frequently replaced. This animation will show the replacement of the mitral valve.
