The fully percutaneous femoral approach for transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is now the gold standard for enabling early patient ambulation. However, an alternative route through the subclavian-axillary access may offer some advantages for rapid mobilization. We present the TAVI technique performed only with the single-arm approach, i.e. in a way that brings us closer to the standards of coronary procedures through radial access.
