Abstract

A 76-year-old man diagnosed with severe pure native aortic regurgitation (PNAR) underwent transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) due to high surgical risk. The computed tomography angiography showed no calcification and no stenosis of the aortic valve, with an annulus perimeter of 81.1 mm and sinus diameters of 35 to 38 mm.
