In asymptomatic patients with mild to moderate aortic stenosis, the survival is similar to age-matched controls. [1,16] The mainstay of medical treatment for these patients is simply appropriate ...

Background Aortic stenosis is a degenerative condition with high mortality in its severe stages and no preventive treatment.

The procedural mortality rate is 2-5%, similar to that of surgical AVR. Aortic balloon valvuloplasty is appropriate in congenital aortic stenosis where no calcification of the aortic valve has ...

Despite guideline recommendations, the use of bioprosthetic heart valves has surpassed mechanical valves, but data from a large surgical database may lead to a reassessment of that practice.

The only effective treatment for aortic stenosis is removal of the mechanical obstruction. To this end, only aortic valve replacement (AVR) has been shown to achieve this while reducing mortality.

ACURATE neo2 TAVI achieves high success in severe bicuspid aortic stenosis, demonstrating strong 30-day safety and efficacy.

The Medicare data contradict results from the TCW randomized trial but better represent real-world practice, say authors.
