Impact of stroke volume assessment by three-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography on the classification of low-gradient aortic stenosis
BackgroundAccurate assessment of flow status is crucial in low-gradient aortic stenosis (AS). However, the clinical implication of three-dimensional...

Patients with paradoxical low-flow, low-gradient aortic stenosis gain the least benefit from TAVI among all hemodynamic subtypes
BackgroundSubstantial controversy exists regarding the clinical benefit of patients with severe paradoxical low-flow, low-gradient aortic stenosis...

Concomitant mitral regurgitation in patients with low-gradient aortic stenosis: an analysis from the German Aortic Valve Registry
BackgroundPatients with severe aortic stenosis (AS) frequently presented mitral regurgitation (MR), which may interfere with the standard...

Aortic valve calcium volume as measured by native versus contrast-enhanced computer tomography and the implications for the diagnosis of severe aortic stenosis in TAVR patients with low-gradient aortic stenosis
BackgroundMost of TAVR centers evaluate the calcium score in contrast-enhanced (ce) CT. We compared in this study between different methodologies to...

Aortic stenosis and right ventricular dysfunction
At the present time, right ventricular function in patients with aortic stenosis is insufficiently taken into account in the decision-making process...

The diagnostic role of “acceleration time” measurement in patients with classical low flow low gradient aortic stenosis with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction
PurposeIn our study, we aimed to assess the role of acceleration time (AT), ejection time (ET), and AT/ET ratio to distinguish between true and...

The prognostic significance of stroke volume index in low gradient severe aortic stenosis: from the national echo database of Australia
Approximately 50% of patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS) in clinical practice present with ‘low-gradient’ haemodynamics. Stroke Volume Index...

TAVI in patients with low-flow low-gradient aortic stenosis–short-term and long-term outcomes
ObjectivesThe study objective was to characterize different groups of low-flow low-gradient (LFLG) aortic stenosis (AS) and determine short-term...

Proposal criteria of paradoxical low-flow low-gradient aortic stenosis for predicting prognosis in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation
BackgroundParadoxical low-flow, low-gradient (PLF-LG) aortic stenosis (AS) is associated with poor prognosis in patients undergoing transcatheter...

Severe low-gradient aortic stenosis: impact of inadequate left ventricular responses to high afterload on diagnosis and therapeutic decision-making
The fact that nearly 50% of patients with an aortic valve (AV) area < 1.0 cm 2 , consistent with severe aortic stenosis (AS), can have mean trans-AV...

Long-Term Outcomes of Individualized Repair in Patients with Supravalvular Aortic Stenosis
Various surgical techniques have been introduced to treat supravalvular aortic stenosis (SVAS). However, there is no consensus on the optimal...

Fetal Diagnosis of Supravalvular Aortic Stenosis and Pulmonary Stenosis in a Family with Non-Syndromic Elastin Mutation
Supravalvular aortic stenosis (SVAS) has been well described in Williams–Beuren Syndrome and non-syndromic elastin (ELN) mutations. Non-syndromic ELN...

Percutaneous treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysm and aortic valve stenosis with ‘staged’ EVAR and TAVR: a case series
Symptomatic aortic valve stenosis (AS) and abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) are critical clinical conditions, increasingly more prevalent with aging...

A Y-incision to enlarge the aortic root for aortic valve stenosis with anomalous aortic origin of the right coronary artery
BackgroundAnomalous aortic origin of the coronary artery (AAOCA) is a rare congenital heart disease. Therefore, optimal indications for surgery in...
-
Low-flow in aortic valve stenosis patients with reduced ejection fraction does not depend on left ventricular function
BackgroundPatients with severe aortic stenosis (AS) and reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) can be distinguished into high- (HG) and...
-
Association between evolocumab use and slow progression of aortic valve stenosis
No medications have been reported to inhibit the progression of aortic valve stenosis (AS). The present study aimed to investigate whether evolocumab...

Advanced CT measures of coronary artery disease with intermediate stenosis in patients with severe aortic valve stenosis
BackgroundCoronary artery disease (CAD) and severe aortic valve stenosis (AS) frequently coexist. While pre-transcatheter aortic valve replacement...
