Mass Reduction and Functional Improvement of the Left Ventricle after Aortic Valve Replacement for Degenerative Aortic Stenosis
BACKGROUND: Left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy caused by aortic valve stenosis (AS) leads to cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. We sought to determine whether aortic valve replacement (AVR) decreases LV mass and improves LV function. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Retrospective review for 358 consecutiv...
