The present study sought to develop a reliable calcium score (Ca-score) to predict paravalvular leak (PVL) in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve (AV) implantation. A total of 965 patients were prospectively included from 2012 to 2019. Preprocedural contrast-media-enhanced computed tomography scans were analysed regarding the amount of AV cusp calcification and the presence of upper and lower left ventricular outflow tract calcification. The calcium volume threshold of each AV cusp [non-coronary cusp (NCC); lef
