Unique aortic root morphological characteristics of pure aortic regurgitation compared to calcified aortic stenosis. Lack of a calcified landing level is a main challenge for TAVR in pure aortic regurgitation patients (A); Calcified spots of native aortic stenosis provide anchoring level for transcatheter heart valve in TAVR procedure (B). TAVR = transcatheter aortic valve replacement
