N2  - Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has emerged as a highly effective minimally  invasive treatment symptomatic for severe calcific aortic stenosis in patients at high or prohibitive surgical  risk. The success of TAVI has been determined by a number of factors, but in particular by appropriate  patient selection. Appropriate patient selection involves identifying patients with the potential to benefit  most from TAVI and individualizing the bioprosthesis type and size, and the vascular access site for each  case. We present herein, our critical appraisal on patient selection for TAVI: an interventional cardiology  perspective.
