  • Title: [Surgical management of aortic valve stenosis].
    Author: Kleikamp G, Maleszka A, Zittermann A, Körfer R.
    Journal: Herz; 2006 Oct; 31(7):670-5. PubMed ID: 17072781.
    Abstract:
    This paper gives an overview of the indications for surgical therapy of aortic valve stenosis. The current surgical management and the results of aortic valve replacement are outlined. The presented results of aortic valve replacement especially in elderly and high-risk patients compare favorably with other published data in respect to perioperative morbidity and mortality. All newly developed procedures for the treatment of aortic stenosis therefore will have to prove their superiority in future.
