Though femoral access is used for the majority of cases today, this approach may be limited in cases of insufficient vessel caliber, tortuosity or severe iliofemoral disease. For such scenarios, a transaxillary (TAx) approach is appealing as this vessel appears to be far less frequently affected by atherosclerotic disease, even in the presence of significant iliofemoral disease. Though surgical cut-down has been the traditional method for the TAx approach, there has been a growing clinical experience with successful percutaneous transaxillary access in the setting of TAVR and mechanical circulatory support devices. In this review, we offer a step-by-step guide to TAx TAVR. ER -
