Mean EROA in relation to the annular anatomy post-TAVR and at 6 months follow-up. Valve deployment process starts with the device in the outer curvature of the aorta and the THV being positioned in the commissure between the NCC and the RCC (asterisk). The ACURATE neo expands towards the LCC and its adjacent commissures (arrows). PVL occurred predominantly in the region of the most distant cusp the LCC and its adjacent commissures. EROA decreased at 6 months follow-up.
