I got 2 opposite opinions from surgeons under the same university hospital affiliation. First one said ohs was only option. Second one said no surgery needed, only cath and keep an eye on valves. Second one said tavr would be an option.
Obviously, a third opinion is in order.

Where is the aneurysm? Is it ascending aorta and or root? Descending Aorta or abdominal aorta? TAVR isn't likely on the root and or ascending aorta.
