Galectin-3 as a novel biotarget in cardiovascular alterations associated to development of severe aortic stenosis

Anales del Sistema Sanitario de Navarra, 2019
Aortic stenosis is one of the most common heart valve diseases, as well as one of the most common causes of heart failure in the elderly. Currently, there are no medical therapies to prevent or slow the progression of the disease.

Unusual association of aortic valve stenosis with ventricular septal defect and pulmonary atresia: Differentiation from truncus arteriosus with truncal valve stenosis

Annals of Pediatric Cardiology, 2013
Stenosis of systemic semilunar valve in cyanotic congenital heart defects is rare. It can happen in truncus arteriosus with truncal valve stenosis and the very rare anomaly of tetralogy of fallot with aortic valve stenosis.

Emergency treatment of acute decompensated critical aortic stenosis with transcatheter aortic valve implantation

, 2020
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is relatively contraindicated in the bicuspid aortic valve, and to our knowledge has not been tried where the true native annulus is of a size far in excess of current device capabilities.

One-stop transcatheter aortic valve replacement and fenestrated endovascular aortic aneurysm repair: A case report

Radiology Case Reports
The management of patients with severe aortic valve stenosis and an abdominal aortic aneurysm is a real therapeutic challenge. Minimally invasive treatment is more beneficial than open surgery for treating both aortic valve stenosis and abdominal aortic ...

Unicuspid Aortic Stenosis in a Patient with Turner Syndrome: A Case Report

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2014
Congenital aortic valve anomalies are the cause of premature aortic stenosis in pediatric and younger adult populations. Despite being very rare, unicuspid aortic valves account for approximately 5% of isolated aortic valve replacements.
