Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) for severe aortic stenosis in older adults may be challenging because of additional aortic comorbidities such as aortic coarctation (CoA). We report successful snared-assisted transfemoral TAVR in a patient with an extremely horizontal ventriculoaortic axis that was worsened by a previous endovascular repair of complex CoA.

Abstract
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) for severe aortic stenosis in older adults may be challenging because of additional aortic comorbidities such as aortic coarctation (CoA). We report successful snared-assisted transfemoral TAVR in a patient with an extremely horizontal ventriculoaortic axis that was worsened by a previous endovascular repair of complex CoA. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.)
