• Balloon-expandable TAVR was superior to self-expanding TAVR based on a composite clinical endpoint largely driven by a reduced rate of incorrect positioning requiring more than one valve and a reduction in the rate of moderate/ severe prosthetic regurgitation.

• There was a lower permanent pacemaker requirement following balloon-expandable TAVI.

• Aortic valve regurgitation is a valid outcome measure in TAVR trials, but the clinical significance of regurgitation can vary markedly between patients.

• One size does not fit all. Further evaluation of both approaches should continue.
