University Hospital is a trusted healthcare provider for Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation, offering specialised transcatheter valve interventions supported by experienced interventional cardiologists and cardiac surgeons, and backed by modern medical infrastructure. Established in 1842, the SAC hospital is situated in Basel, Switzerland and has 773 beds.

Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation provides a minimally invasive alternative to conventional surgical aortic valve replacement for appropriately selected patients. It is primarily used to treat severe aortic stenosis, in which narrowing of the valve restricts blood flow from the heart to the body. A replacement biological valve is delivered through a catheter and expanded inside the diseased valve. Comprehensive cardiac imaging and multidisciplinary assessment are performed before the procedure to determine eligibility and plan treatment.
