This record contains raw data related to the article “LITHOTRIPSY OF CALCIFIED AORTIC VALVE LEAFLETS BY A NOVEL ULTRASOUND TRANSCATHETER-BASED DEVICE” The increasing incidence of calcific aortic valve disease necessitates the elaboration of new strategies to retard the progression of the pathology with an innovative solution. While the increasing diffusion of the transcatheter aortic valve replacements (TAVRs) allows a mini-invasive approach to aortic valve substitution as an alternative to conventional surgical replacement (SAVR) in an always larger patient population, TAVR implantation still has contraindications for young patients. In addition, it is liable to undergo calcification with …
