    Extractions: D Seshagiri Rao Nizam’s Institute of Medical Sciences, Hyderabad Percutaneous balloon mitral valvotomy (PBMV) has emerged as one of the main forms of treatment for patients of moderate-to-severe mitral stenosis. Increasingly, PBMV is being done for patients who have associated mild-to-moderate aortic valve disease. We followed up the progression of aortic valve disease over 3 years in patients who underwent PBMV. Fifty-two patients underwent PBMV for moderate-to-severe mitral stenosis; they had associated mild-to-moderate aortic valve disease (aortic regurgitation in 42 patients and aortic stenosis in 10 patients). They were followed-up for 3 years by echocardiography (transthoracic and transesophageal) for progression of aortic valve disease. Two patients underwent double valve replacement (MVR+AVR) for progression of aortic valve disease and mitral stenosis; both these cases progressed from moderate-to-severe AR. The majority of patients with AR n=30) had no progression. In 10 patients, AR progressed from mild-to-moderate severity. In the group of patients with associated AS, the majority

    Extractions: DATE: Oct. 22, 2002 Future studies may find that ACE inhibitors, a class of drugs now taken by people with high blood pressure, could slow down or prevent the development of aortic valve calcium, say University of Washington researchers. Currently, the only treatment for severe calcium in the aortic valve is surgical replacement. "Since we already know that ACE inhibition has benefit in a similar disease, atherosclerosis, further study of this therapy in calcific aortic valvular disease makes a lot of sense," says the lead author, Dr. Kevin O’Brien, an associate professor of medicine in the UW School of Medicine’s Division of Cardiology. In the study, published in the Oct. 22 issue of Circulation, O’Brien and colleagues analyzed 21 human aortic valves, either from autopsy or from people who were having their valves replaced. Angiotensin-converting enzyme, or ACE, was not detected in normal aortic valves, but was present in all valves with lesions. ACE was found in association with LDL cholesterol, both in lesions and in the bloodstream, raising the possibility that LDL carries the ACE into lesions, where the ACE then contributes to aortic valve disease development. The findings also raise the possibility that the association of ACE with LDL particles may be relevant to a number of diseases in which LDL accumulates, such as atherosclerosis and some renal diseases.

    Extractions: METHODS: Consecutive patients with isolated subaortic stenosis presenting to the Toronto Adult Congenital Cardiology Clinic were reviewed (n=53). Patients with the following associated anomalies were excluded: septal defects, transposition, double outlet RV, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, and univentricular connections. RESULTS: There were 28 males, and the mean age was 36.8±1.8 (mSD) years at current follow up. The common associated anomalies included 17 aortic stenosis, 13 aortic regurgitation, 14 bicuspid aortic valves (BAV), 5 supravalvular aortic stenosis, 9 coarctation, 4 mitral stenosis, and 5 PDAs. All 53 patients had undergone at least one surgical resection of their subaortic membrane at a median age for the first resection at 10 (range 1,67 years), with an average LV outflow gradient of 74.5±5.2 mmHg. Of the 53 pts, 28% (15/53) required subsequent aortic valve surgery, including 10 valvotomies and 9 AV replacements at a median age of 21 years (14,27). At the time of surgery, 47% had BAVs and 53% had tricuspid AVs, all with valvular aortic stenosis. Of those requiring aortic valve replacements, 67% also required reoperation for recurring subaortic stenosis.

    Extractions: Sackler Faculty of Medicine , Tel Aviv University The aim of the present study is to investigate combined aortic stenosis and regurgitation of varying severity using numerical simulations. The numerical simulations will provide detailed data on the time dependent flow field. Moreover, the numerical simulations can be effectively utilized to isolate the governing factors and to develop (together with other tools of investigation) more reliable methodologies in the assessment of the severity of aortic stenosis and regurgitation. Usually the simplified Bernoulli equation is used to calculate the pressure drop across heart valves. However, since the flow is viscous (rotational) and time dependent, this equation may not be valid or yield accurate results. This is especially true in the present case of stenotic lesions in combined aortic stenosis and regurgitation, where strong interaction and the vortical flow invalidates the underlying assumptions. Furthermore, the effect of stenosis severity on the color Doppler assessment of the regurgitant jet in these lesions was never studied in a controlled manner. Therefore it is of utmost importance to comprehend the resulting flow field and consequently to develop improved and simplified relationships (or correlations) for estimating more accurately the pressure drops in the case of combined aortic stenosis and regurgitation.

Aortic stenosis is the narrowing or obstruction of the heart's aortic valve, which prevents it from opening properly and blocks the flow of blood from the aorta to the left ventricle. Causes, incidence, and risk factors Return to top Aortic stenosis is caused by many disorders. One common cause is rheumatic fever , a complication of untreated strep throat. Other causes include calcification of the valve and congenital abnormalities (disorders present at birth). There may be a history of other valve diseases, coronary artery disease , or heart murmur.

Medical Services This narrowing of the valve leads to higher pressure in the pumping chamber (left ventricle) than in the receiving chamber (aorta). This difference in pressure is called a pressure gradient. Usually the higher the gradient, the more severe the obstruction; although, there may be exceptions. This increased workload makes the muscle of the left ventricle grow thicker (hypertrophy). As it gets thicker, the ventricle does not work as well as it did before. Eventually, the heart muscle cannot keep up with the workload. As this happens, the patient develops progressive symptoms, which may include chest pain, shortness of breath, lightheadedness, fainting, etc. Aortic stenosis can cause heart failure. Severe aortic stenosis can cause sudden death. Mayo Clinic Rochester's Heart Valve Disease Clinic provides patients with a state-of-the-art evaluation. The clinic is staffed by nationally-recognized cardiologists with a subspecialty expertise in the evaluation and treatment of heart valve problems and the complications of those valve problems.
