  • 2010: The aortic valve was tricuspid, with mild sclerosis without systolic gradient.

  • 2016: Mild aortic valve stenosis (peak systolic gradient: 25 mmHg, valve area: 1.50 cm2). New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional class I.

  • 2017: Moderate aortic stenosis (peak systolic gradient: 34 mmHg, aortic valve area: 1.20 cm2). NYHA functional Class II.

  • 2019: Low-flow, low-gradient, severe aortic stenosis (peak systolic gradient: 36 mmHg, aortic valve area: 0.97 cm2). NYHA functional class II–III.

  • Due to his high surgical risk status, the heart team opted for transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI).

  • 2019: At 2 months post-TAVI, the signs of heart failure disappeared and the patient was asymptomatic.
