Study Summary

Background: \- Some people who need a transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) have leg arteries that are too small and are too sick for standard techniques. But they may benefit from a new technique called transcaval TAVR. For this technique, doctors make a hole between the largest vein (vena cava) and largest artery (aorta) in the body, inside the abdomen. Then they replace the valve through a tube they put in the groin vein. Then they close the hole between the vein and the artery using a device designed to close holes in the heart. This study tests the device for this new, off-label use. Objective: \- To further study the safety and effectiveness of transcaval TAVR. Eligibility: \- Adults age 21 and older who would benefit from TAVR but for whom standard techniques are not suitable. Design: * Participants will be selected by a team of heart specialists and others. * Participants will have a computed tomography (CT) scan with or without contrast dye. * Participants will have blood tests. * Participants will have transcaval TAVR. * Participants will receive the same standard care as for all patients with TAVR. * Participants will also have another CT scan, or an MRI or ultrasound, before they leave the hospital, and again after about 30 days and after about 12 months. * Participants will be contacted 1 and 6 months afterwards and will have another visit 1 year later. They will have a CT, MRI, or ultrasound. They will have blood tests and a physical exam.

Primary Outcome

The primary endpoint is device success, which is defined as successful transcaval access and deployment of a closure device without death or emergency open surgery related to caval-aortic access
