      Aortic insufficiency (AI) due to fibrosis and thickening of the nodules of Arantius in the otherwise normal aortic valve was found in 11 adults (age range, 41 to 65 years) between 1976 and 1988. Nine had concomitant mitral stenosis; 2 had coronary artery disease.

      he timing of aortic valve surgery is described for patients presenting with two conditions: aortic stenosis and chronic aortic regurgitation. Aortic stenosis Aortic stenosis may be caused by rheumatic disease,a congenital bicuspid valve or calcifica-tion of a trileaflet valve. In Europe and North America, the aetiology of aortic stenosis most

Aortic stenosis primarily affects older people and occurs at higher rates in men than in women. Aortic sclerosis, the calcification and thickening of aortic valve leaflets, is a precursor to aortic stenosis and, in

      Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is a well-established treatment of severe aortic stenosis. Owing to technical improvements, increased operator experience and refined preprocedural imaging, it is an increasingly safe and successful procedure (1,2). However, there is increasing awareness of prosthesis valve thrombosis after TAVR (3-6).

The morphology of the aortic valve was assessed during TEE by high-frequency (7 MHz), high-resolution imaging of the valve in multiple (short- and long-axis) echocardiographic views (9,10). “Aortic valve sclerosis” was defined as abnormal irregular thickening of the aortic valve leaflets (at least one abnormal leaflet per
