Early Surgery or Conservative Care for Asymptomatic Aortic Stenosis.
BACKGROUND The timing and indications for surgical intervention in asymptomatic patients with severe aortic stenosis remain controversial. METHODS In a multicenter trial, we randomly assigned 145 asymptomatic patients with very severe aortic stenosis ...

Multi-Modality Imaging in Aortic Stenosis an EACVI Clinical Consensus Document.
In this EACVI clinical scientific update, we will explore the current use of multi-modality imaging in the diagnosis, risk-stratification and follow-up of patients with aortic stenosis, with a particular focus on recent developments and future directions.

A model based on clinical parameters to identify myocardial late gadolinium enhancement by magnetic resonance in patients with aortic stenosis: An observational study [PDF]
Objective With increasing age, the prevalence of aortic stenosis grows exponentially, increasing left heart pressures and potentially leading to myocardial hypertrophy, myocardial fibrosis and adverse outcomes.

Effect of Denosumab or Alendronic Acid on the Progression of Aortic Stenosis
Supplemental Digital Content is available in the text. Background: Valvular calcification is central to the pathogenesis and progression of aortic stenosis, with preclinical and observational studies suggesting that bone turnover and osteoblastic ...

Pathological Investigation of Congenital Bicuspid Aortic Valve Stenosis, Compared with Atherosclerotic Tricuspid Aortic Valve Stenosis and Congenital Bicuspid Aortic Valve Regurgitation [PDF]
Congenital bicuspid aortic valve (CBAV) is the main cause of aortic stenosis (AS) in young adults. However, the histopathological features of AS in patients with CBAV have not been fully investigated.We examined specimens of aortic valve leaflets ...

Contrast-enhanced computed tomography assessment of aortic stenosis
Objectives Non-contrast CT aortic valve calcium scoring ignores the contribution of valvular fibrosis in aortic stenosis. We assessed aortic valve calcific and non-calcific disease using contrast-enhanced CT.
