Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI) is a minimally invasive procedure used to treat severe aortic stenosis. Instead of open-heart surgery, doctors insert a catheter through a small incision in the leg or chest to guide and place a new valve inside the diseased one. This allows the heart to pump blood more efficiently, reduces recovery time, and is especially beneficial for patients who are at high risk for surgery.
