3. Aortic Stenosis: Etiology

Congenital bicuspid valve is the most common
abnormality
Rheumatic heart disease and degeneration
with calcification are found as well

6. Aortic Stenosis: Symptoms

Cardinal Symptoms
• Chest pain (angina)
Reduced coronary flow reserve
Increased demand-high afterload
• Syncope/Dizziness (exertional pre-syncope)
Fixed cardiac output
Vasodepressor response
• Dyspnea on exertion & rest
• Impaired exercise tolerance
Other signs of LV failure
• Diastolic & systolic dysfunction

7. Aortic Stenosis: Physical Findings

Intensity DOES NOT predict severity
Presence of thrill DOES NOT predict
severity
“Diamond” shaped, harsh, systolic
crescendo-decrescendo
Decreased, delay & prolongation of pulse

Decreasing intensity of S2
S4 (with left ventricular hypertrophy)
S3 (with left ventricular failure)

9. Severity of Stenosis

Normal aortic valve area 2.5-3.5 cm2
Mild stenosis 1.5-2.5 cm2
Moderate stenosis 1.0-1.5 cm2
Severe stenosis < 1.0 cm2
Critical stenosis < 0.7 cm2
Onset of symptoms
~0.9 cm2 with CAD
~0.7 cm2 without CAD

Simplified: Hakke’s formula AVA=CO/ (p-p gradient)

14. Low gradient AS

Calculated AVA is < 1.0 cm2 , But…
AV gradient is <30mmHg.
Stenotic or not Stenotic?

15. Low gradient AS

16. Aortic Stenosis: Prognosis

Symptom/Sign
Angina
Live
expectancy
5 years
Syncope
2-3 years
Congestive Heart Failure
1-2 years
Therapy: Valve replacement for severe aortic stenosis
Operative mortality (elderly) ~ 4%/Morbidity ~ 3-11%
Event rate in asymptomatic severe AS ~ 1%/year

17. Natural History of Aortic Stenosis

Heart failure
reduces life
expectancy to less
than 2 years
Angina and
syncope reduce life
expectancy
between 2 and 5
years
Rate of progression
@ 0.1 cm2/year

19. Operative mortality of AVR in the elderly

~ 4-24%/year
Risk factors for
operative mortality
• Functional class
• Lack of sinus
rhythm
• HTN
• Pre-existing LV
dysfunction
• Aortic regurgitation
• Concomitant
surgical
procedures:CABG/M
V surgery
• Previous bypass
• Emergency surgery
• CAD
• Female gender

20. AVR is recommended in symptomatic patients with severe AS (stage D1) with :

Decreased systolic opening of a calcified or congenitally
stenotic aortic valve; and
An aortic velocity 4.0 m per second or greater or mean
pressure gradient 40 mm Hg or higher; and
Symptoms of HF, syncope, exertional dyspnea,
angina, or (pre)syncope by history or on exercise testing.
