Impact of Aortic Valve Replacement for Aortic Stenosis on Coexisting Mitral Stenosis
Annals of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2021 The course of coexisting mitral valve stenosis is not clear after aortic valve replacement (AVR) for aortic stenosis (AS). We investigated the effect of AVR for AS on coexisting mitral stenosis (MS).Between January 2002 and December 2019, 1338 consecutive patients underwent surgical AVR at Shiga University of Medical Science.

How rare is isolated rheumatic tricuspid valve disease? [PDF]
, 2020 The incidence of rheumatic fever (RF) has markedly decreased in Europe since the beginning of the 20th century due to improved living conditions, early antibiotic therapy in streptococcal pharyngitis, and changes in serotypes of circulating streptococci.

Epidemiology and cardiovascular risk factors of aortic stenosis
Cardiovascular Ultrasound, 2006 The abnormalities of aortic valve morphology and function represent the most common cardiac-valve lesion particularly in elderly. The etiology of aortic stenosis is degenerative-calcific in the majority of patients.

Genetic testing for aortic valve stenosis [PDF]
The EuroBiotech Journal, 2018 Abstract Aortic valve stenosis (AVS) is a congenital aortic defect in which the aortic lumen narrows due to thickening or calcification of the aortic valve without obstructing left ventricular outflow. Depending on the site of obstruction, AVS is classified as valvular, sub-valvular or supra-valvular.
