Anatomical Considerations Conduction abnormalities are not atypical following AVR due to the anatomical proximity of the aortic valve to the conduction system

– Distance from the non-coronary cusp to the HIS bundle has been measured to be 6.3 ± 2.4 mm.

Gutierrez et al. Am Heart J 2009, (N=33)

Implant Depth Impacts Conduction Disturbances

• A lower (ventricular) position of the valve relative to the hinge point of the anterior mitral leaflet was associated with a higher incidence of new LBBB (35% vs. 0%, P = .029).

Implanted Below → 35% of patients developed LBBB

Hinge Point of the Anterior Mitral Valve

Implanted Above → 0% of patients developed LBBB
