Abstract Background: The off-label utilization of transcatheter heart valve (THV) devices for the treatment of inoperable or high-surgical risk patients with pure native aortic valve regurgitation (NAVR) has demonstrated suboptimal outcomes, both with self- and balloon-expandable (BE) devices. The aim of this study is to compare the use of different BE scaffolds in treating pure NAVR. Methods: Consecutive patients with pure severe NAVR who were deemed to be at high-risk and were treated with last-generation BE-THVs among seventeen Centers in Europe and US. Technical and device success rates were the primary objectives. Results: Between February 2018 and July 2023, among 144 patients, 41 (28 %) received a MyVal device and 103 (72 %) were treated with a Sapien THV. Patients treated with a MyVal THV had an extra-large annulus more frequently compared to the Sapien group (49%vs.20 %, p 0.1. The rate of THV migration/embolization (MyVal 4.9%vs. Sapien 11 %, p = 0.4) and second valve needed (4.9%vs.7.8 %, p = 0.7) were numerically lower in the MyVal group, whereas the rate of at least moderate paravalvular leak (15%vs.7.8 %, p = 0.2) and permanent pacemaker implantation (25%vs.18 %, p = 0.16) were numerically higher in the Myval group. Conclusions: Off-label use of BE devices for pure NAVR represents a potential alternative in high-risk patients in the absence of dedicated devices. However, BE in NAVR is associated with suboptimal outcomes. The availability of larger THV sizes may introduce transcatheter aortic valve replacement as an effective treatment for patients traditionally deemed unsuitable.
