Abstract
In this adjudicated prospective study, SAVR in intermediate-risk patients had excellent results at 2 years. However, there were more in-hospital strokes than expected, most likely attributable to mandatory neurologic assessment after the procedure. No pronounced structural valve deterioration was found during 2-year follow-up. Continued long-term surveillance remains important.
