TAVR Procedure Treating Structural Heart Disease

Johns Hopkins cardiologist Jon Resar and cardiac surgeon Stefano Schena discuss the Structural Heart Disease Clinic at Johns Hopkins and answer commonly asked questions about transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) to treat aortic stenosis. The TAVR procedure, a Johns Hopkins innovation, is a less invasive approach than traditional open heart surgery. The TAVR procedure is  offered by Johns Hopkins Medicine in both Baltimore and DC.
