Excerpt

Aortic stenosis (AS) is the most frequent form of valvular heart disease in Europe. It is primarily caused by senile degenerative disease, which affects 2–7 % of the population over the age of 65. When symptoms occur, the prognosis of severe AS is poor. Without treatment, up to 50 % of patients die within the first 2 years after symptom onset, mainly from congestive heart failure or sudden death. …
