Aortic valve stenosis

2021
Abstract Aortic valve stenosis (AS) is the most prevalent valvular heart disease and is increasingly diagnosed in high-income countries due to an ageing population but also to more widely available diagnostic tools. The prevalence of AS is estimated at ~0.5% in the general population, ~2–3% in the population over 65 years old.

Transcatheter or Surgical Treatment of Aortic-Valve Stenosis.

New England Journal of Medicine
BACKGROUND Among low-risk patients with severe, symptomatic aortic stenosis who are eligible for both transcatheter aortic-valve implantation (TAVI) and surgical aortic-valve replacement (SAVR), data are lacking on the appropriate treatment strategy in ...

Aortic Valve Stenosis

Scandinavian Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 1993
Aortic valve stenosis may be congenital or acquired. Medical management includes advice to avoid heavy physical effort, prevention of infective endocarditis, use of digitalis and diuretics for cardiac failure, and preservation of atrial systole. When operation is necessary, open aortic valve commissurotomy is preferred in children and replacement of ...

Aortic valve stenosis

2015
Abstract Echocardiography is the method of choice for the diagnosis, assessment of morphology, and aetiology, as well as quantification of aortic valve stenosis. It permits the additional evaluation of the consequences on left ventricular size and, function, wall thickness, mitral valve (functional regurgitation).Haemodynamic assessment ...

Biomarkers in Aortic Valve Stenosis and their Clinical Significance in Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation.

Current Medicinal Chemistry, 2019
Aortic valve stenosis is one of the most common valvular heart disorders and the prevalence will rise as the population ages. Once symptomatic patients with aortic valve stenosis tend to fare worse with high mortality rates.

Aortic Valve Replacement for Aortic Stenosis in Nonagenarians

The American Journal of Cardiology, 2006
We reviewed certain clinical and morphologic findings in 9 patients who had aortic valve replacement (AVR) for aortic stenosis (AS) when >or=90 years of age. All had AVR from February 2000 to April 2006. The aortic valve areas ranged from 0.41 to 1.00 cm2, and the transvalvular peak systolic gradients ranged from 20 to 110 mm Hg.

Indications for Aortic Valve Replacement in Aortic Stenosis

Journal of Intensive Care Medicine, 2007
Aortic stenosis is a common condition, particularly in the elderly. The treatment is surgical, and any patient with symptomatic severe aortic stenosis should be considered for aortic valve replacement. Aortic stenosis causes an increase in afterload to the left ventricle, which when severe can lead to hemodynamic instability.

Transcatheter aortic valve replacement for bicuspid aortic valve stenosis

Cleveland Clinic journal of medicine, 2018
Surgery remains the standard of care, but transcatheter aortic valve replacement is an emerging, viable option for some.

Progression of aortic valve sclerosis to aortic stenosis

level or low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol concentrations. Itwould be interesting to know the effects of thesefactors on severe calcific AS.In summary, this large case-control study showsthat the development of severe AS caused by thecalcific degenerative process is not simply a conse-quence of aging.

Translocation of aortic valve for calcific aortic stenosis

The Japanese Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2000
A 56-year-old man underwent surgery for treatment of severe calcific aortic stenosis. Because it was found after excision of the aortic valve that calcification of the annulus was too extensive for the placement of sutures, translocation of the aortic valve was performed.
