Aortic valve disease

Medicine, 2002
Abstract Aortic valve disease encompasses aortic stenosis, aortic regurgitation, and congenital malformations. Aortic valve stenosis is a common problem among the elderly, and valve replacement is still the only treatment option for severe symptomatic disease.

Standardized Aortic Valve Neocuspidization for Treatment of Aortic Valve Diseases

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2022
Aortic valve replacement is the traditional surgical treatment for aortic valve diseases, yet standardized aortic valve neocuspidization (AVNeo) is a promising alternative that is gaining popularity. The purpose of this article is to review the available published literature of AVNeo using glutaraldehyde-treated autologous pericardium, also known as ...

Aortic valve disease

Current Opinion in Cardiology, 1996
There have been several significant advances in our understanding of aortic valve disease over the past year. Recent studies suggest that "degenerative" valvular aortic stenosis is an active disease process rather than an inevitable consequence of aging.

Aortic Valve Repair for Rheumatic Aortic Valve Disease

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2005
The aim of this study is to assess the long-term results of aortic valve repair in patients with rheumatic aortic valve disease.From April 1991 through December 2003, 61 patients with rheumatic aortic valve disease underwent aortic valve repair. Mean age was 23.7 +/- 9.3 years (range, 6 to 53 years).

Aortic valve disease

Current Opinion in Cardiology, 1994
Management of aortic valve disease follows traditional algorithms: initial gross diagnosis, noninvasive imaging and quantitation, possible catheterization or angiography, and medical treatment until symptoms of prognosis prediction indicates surgery. Most advances in this subject reflect improved technology and additional data collection therefrom, and

Hyperlipidaemia and aortic valve disease

Current Opinion in Lipidology, 2004
Degenerative aortic valve stenosis is a common disease in the elderly, and traditional risk factors for atherosclerotic disease including hyperlipidaemia have been associated with the condition in several studies. This review addresses the role of the various risk factors and the potential for intervention.The association of lipid abnormalities such as

Aortic valve disease

European Heart Journal, 1984
AORTIC STENOSIS Clinical suspicion of significant aortic stenosis even in the presence of a normal chest X-ray and electrocardiogram should lead to careful 2-D echocardiographic examination. The lesion can be adjudged mild and the subject probably certificated if the recording shows normal septal and posterior wall thickness, normal left ventricular ...

Heart valve disease (aortic valve disease): aortic regurgitation

2016
Abstract Echocardiography is the cornerstone examination for the assessment of aortic regurgitation (AR): it provides reliable evaluation of the aortic valve and allows diagnosis and identification of the mechanism of regurgitation. The specific aetiology of the disease can be identified in the majority of cases.

Transcatheter aortic valve replacement in bicuspid aortic valve disease

Current Opinion in Cardiology, 2015
Bicuspid aortic valve stenosis is regarded as a relative contraindication for transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) according to current guidelines, as patients with bicuspid anatomy (BiAV) were excluded from landmark clinical trials.In this review, we will discuss the feasibilty, safety and outcomes of TAVR in BiAV, based upon the current ...

Heart valve disease (aortic valve disease): aortic stenosis

2016
Abstract Echocardiography has become the gold standard for the assessment of patients with aortic stenosis (AS). It allows morphological assessment of the aortic valve and provides information on the aetiology of the disease. The quantification of AS includes primarily the measurement of transaortic jet velocities and gradients as well ...
