Editor’s Note: Originally published by the Journal of Invasive Cardiology in 2014 and republished in the March 2024 issue in honor of Dr. Alain Cribier, this case by Kernis et al describes one of the thousands of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) patients benefiting from Dr. Cribier, a pioneer of the TAVR procedure.
Described by the president of the American College of Cardiology Dr. B. Hadley Wilson as a “true visionary”, Alain Cribier, MD, passed away on February 16, 2024. As Dr. Wilson wrote of Dr. Cribier: “The field of cardiology is forever changed because of his vision, leadership and persistence.”
