    Aortic stenosisAortic stenosis

    Aetiology

    Aortic stenosis may be congenital or acquired.

    Congenital malformations may be tricuspid, bicuspid or

    more rarely unicuspid / quadricuspid

    Acquired causes include the following:

    - Degenerative disease

    - Rheumatic disease

    - Calcific e.g. end-stage renal failure, Pagets disease

    - Miscellaneous e.g. rheumatoid involvement

    Thic kened va lves with reduced motion, sometimescalcified

    Grad ing of stenosis severity is as fo llows:

    - Normal va lve a rea = 3-4cm2

    - Mild stenosis = 1.5-3c m2

    - Moderate stenosis = 1.0-1.5c m2

    - Severe stenosis 1.0cm2

    When stenosis is severe, the peak grad ient a c ross theaortic va lve is usua lly > 60mmHg.

    Mitral stenosisMitra l stenosis

    Natural history

    Long latent period of 20 to 40 years

    Once significant limiting symptoms occur, 10-year survival

    rate is 5-15%.

    With severe pulmonary hypertension, mean survival falls to< 3 years.

    Mortality from untreated mitral stenosis is due to progressive

    heart failure (60-70%), systemic embolism (20-30%) andpulmonary embolism (10%).

    The p rimary endpoint o f the tria l was met:

    In p a tients with aortic stenosis a t high risk for opera tion, TAVRwas non-inferior to AVR for a ll-c ause morta lity a t

    1 year (24.2% vs. 26.8%, p=0.001 for non inferiority) Transfemora l TAVR subgroup was a lso non-inferior to

    AVR (p=0.002 for non-inferiority)

    Death a t 30 days was lower than expec ted in botharms of the tria l:

    TAVR morta lity (3.4%) was the lowest reported in any series,desp ite an ea rly genera tion devic e and limited p revious
