Transfemoral approach is the preferred valve delivery route in TAVI because transfemoral approach is less invasive and reported to have fewer complications. 1, 2 However, several conditions, including a narrow access route, a shaggy aorta, an intramural hematoma, and a tortuous aorta, occasionally prohibit the application of the transfemoral approach. The preprocedural simulation based on a patient-specific 3D model was effective to determine the treatment strategy in this case. Although the efficacy of 3D printed organ models has been sporadically reported, 3 this is the first case involving the construction of a 3D aortic model on the basis of patient’s data and measuring the pressure applied to the aortic wall while advancing the valve. Further studies are expected to clarify whether the use of patient-specific 3D models facilitate decision making and reduce TAVI-related complications.
