Percutaneous dual-valve intervention in a high-risk patient with severe aortic and mitral stenosis
Aortic stenosis is the most frequent and mitral stenosis is the least frequent native single-sided valve disease in Europe. Patients with the combination of severe symptomatic degenerative aortic and mitral stenosis are very rare.

Low-Gradient, Low Ejection Fraction Severe Aortic Stenosis: Still a Management Conundrum
The management of patients with severe symptomatic aortic stenosis and a high transvalvular gradient is straightforward. It requires aortic valve replacement. Management of aortic stenosis patients with low flow, low ejection fraction and low gradient is

Cardiac outcomes in adults with supravalvar aortic stenosis [PDF]
Aims Supravalvar aortic stenosis is a rare form of left ventricular outflow tract obstruction that is often progressive in childhood. Little data are available on outcomes in the adult population.

Left ventricular remodeling and hypertrophy in patients with aortic stenosis:insights from cardiovascular magnetic resonance [PDF]
Background Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) is the gold standard non-invasive method for determining left ventricular (LV) mass and volume but has not been used previously to characterise the LV remodeling response in aortic stenosis. We sought to

Echocardiographic evaluation of velocity ratio, velocity time integral ratio, and pulmonary valve area in dogs with pulmonary valve stenosis. [PDF]
BackgroundVelocity ratio, velocity time integral (VTI) ratio, and pulmonary valve area indexed to body surface area (iPVA) are methods of assessment of pulmonary valve stenosis (PS) severity that are less dependent on blood flow. Studies evaluating these

Rapid progression of aortic and mitral stenosis in a patient with AA amyloidosis: a case report [PDF]
Background: Aortic stenosis is a common finding in cardiac amyloidosis (CA). Younger patients often remain asymptomatic. If unrecognized, this can lead to serious complications such as heart failure.
