The implantation of bioprosthetic heart valves have increased dramatically due to the aging population and the widespread application of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). TAVR is increasingly being used in younger, lower-risk patients with a longer life expectancy, so it is important to overcome structural valve degeneration and ensure long-term TAVR durability. Although the mid-term durability results of the TAVR valve are encouraging, its long-term durability needs to be further explored. This article will mainly introduce the influencing factors of TAVR valve durability, evaluation criteria for structural valve degeneration, clinical research results related to TAVR valve durability, and problems to be solved.
