Aortic Valve Replacement (AVR) via Transapical Approach

Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is a minimally invasive heart procedure available at Memorial Şişli Hospital in Istanbul, Turkey. The treatment may cost around $31,000–38,000 USD and is performed by Prof. Sabri Demircan, a Professor of Cardiology with specialized expertise in this advanced technique.
