Rapid progression of aortic stenosis in a 3-month-old infant with bicuspid aortic valve and DeSanto-Shinawi syndrome

Annals of Pediatric Cardiology, 2021
A 3-month-old female was diagnosed at 1 month of age with DeSanto-Shinawi syndrome (DSS) and bicuspid aortic valve with trivial stenosis. The aortic valve stenosis progressed to severe within 2 months and required balloon aortic valvuloplasty.

Investigation of physiological pulsatile flow in a model arterial stenosis using large-eddy and direct numerical simulations [PDF]

, 2012
Physiologicalpulsatileflow in a 3D model of arterialstenosis is investigated by using largeeddysimulation (LES) technique. The computational domain chosen is a simple channel with a biological type stenosis formed eccentrically on the top wall.

Quadrivalvular Involvement in Rheumatic Heart Disease: A Rare Case Report

Journal of the Indian Academy of Echocardiography & Cardiovascular Imaging, 2022
Four-valve involvement (mitral, aortic, tricuspid, and pulmonary) in rheumatic heart disease (RHD) is an exceedingly rare entity. We report the case of a 24-year-old male, a known case of RHD, who presented with dyspnea and presyncope for 2 months.

Mechanisms of aortic stenosis [PDF]

Journal of Cardiology, 2018
The pathobiology of degenerative aortic valve stenosis (AS) is complex and involves multiple features such as fibrosis, inflammation, oxidative stress, angiogenesis, hemorrhage, and osteogenic differentiation. We summarize the mechanism of valve calcification and angiogenesis which is necessary for calcifying processes.

Statins in Aortic Stenosis

Current Pharmaceutical Design, 2018
Calcific aortic stenosis (AS) is the most common form of valvular heart disease in Europe and North America. It is a progressive disease with a prolonged period of asymptomatic latency which eventually leads to critical left ventricular outflow tract obstruction necessitating surgical replacement of the valve.

Prosthetic Aortic Valve Stenosis in End-Stage Renal Failure

International Journal of Nephrology, 2011
Although renal failure is one of the known comorbidities associated with rapid progression of aortic stenosis, it is unclear whether hemodialysis alters the progression of prosthetic aortic valve stenosis.
