Abstract

Objective: Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is an established alternative to surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) in intermediate- and low-risk patients with severe aortic stenosis. However, most randomized trials have enrolled patients older than 70 years with limited follow-up, and evidence on long-term outcomes in younger populations remains insufficient. Our objective was to compare long-term clinical outcomes between propensity-matched TAVR and SAVR patients aged
