Heart team decision of VIV procedure.

Disqualifiers

Patients who openly express their refusal to participate in the study.

Female patients in gestational age.

Presence or suspicious of biological aortic valve thrombosis.

Known hypersensitivity or contraindication to antithrombotic therapy (or inability to be anticoagulated during the procedure), nitinol, or sensitivity to contrast media which cannot be adequately pre-medicated.
