About this trial
The main objective of this study is to evaluate the feasibility and safety of the GEMINUS system in patients with severe symptomatic aortic stenosis.
This is a prospective, open label, multicentre, single arm, first in human clinical study.
Clinical follow up for all patients will be performed at 30 days, 6 months, 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 years post-implantation
