A prospective, single-center, single-group follow-up study of transcatheter aortic valve replacement with A² Flex and commissural alignment technology in severe aortic stenosis by Peijia Medica.Patients are seen at pre and post procedure, discharge, 30 days. The main follow-up included clinical symptoms and signs, cardiac ultrasound, CT, etc. The outcome include immediate device success, procedure success and device sucess. The secondary end points include ：1) Immediate postoperative ultrasound evaluation of different sinus valve implantation depths.2) realization rate of commissural alignment was evaluated by ultrasound immediately after operation.3) the incidence of ≥ moderate paravalvular regurgitation assessed by ultrasound at 30 days after surgery.

4) CT assessment of different sinus valve implantation depths at 30 days after surgery.5) CT was performed 30 days after operation to evaluate the realization rate of commissural alignment and coronary artery alignment

Inclusion Criteria:

• Patients who are willing to participate and sign the informed consent and can cooperate with the whole trial process;
• Age ≥60 years old;
• Patients with severe calcified aortic stenosis confirmed by echocardiography (trans-aortic valve flow velocity ≥ 4.0m /s, or trans-active valvular pressure difference ≥40mmHg (1mmHg=0.133kPa), or aortic valve orientation area < 0.8cm2, or effective aortic valve orifice the product index is < 0.5cm2/m2);
• The cardiac team (at least two specialists in cardiovascular surgery) assessed the patient as unsuitable for routine surgery ;
• The aortic angel ≥60 degree.

Exclusion Criteria:

• The left and right coronary ostiums originate from the junctional zone or from both coronary ostiums;

• Spoor peripheral arterial condition precluded transfemoral TAVR;
• Severe coronary stenoses requiring intervention for which concomitant PCI is not possible;
• Concomitant diseases requiring cardiac surgery;
• Other serious diseases that may reduce life expectancy to less than 12 months (e.g. clinically recurrent or metastatic cancer, congestive heart failure, etc.);
• contraindications to conventional cardiac catheterization, such as intracardiac thrombosis, infection, outflow obstruction, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, etc;
• other surgical anatomical contraindications, such as the risk of coronary artery occlusion;
• clinically significant active bleeding
• platelet count < 30×10/ L;
• participating in other drug or medical device clinical studies that have not yet been completed ;
• considered inappropriate by the investigator to participate in the clinical study.
