Aortic stenosis, angina, and coronary artery disease. Interrelations.

چکیده
Sixty-nine patients over age 35 with severe valvular aortic stenosis were investigated for concomitant coronary artery disease. Forty (57.9%) had clinical angina pectoris. Sixteen (23.2%) had significant coronary occlusive disease by arteriography. Of those with angina, 13 patients (32.5) had significant coronary arterial obstruction, while in the pain-free group only (10.3%) had occlusive coronary disease. It is concluded that patients with severe aortic stenosis who are free of angina have only a small, but definite, chance of having significant coronary disease.

Significance of angina pectoris in aortic valve stenosis.
Of 60 patients aged 45 to 66 years with aortic valve stenosis, 28 (47 per cent) had angina pectoris. Significant coronary arterial obstruction was shown by selective coronary cineangiography in 14 of them. Systolic pressure gradients across the aortic valve were lower in patients with angina than in those without. In those with angina, systolic gradients were higher in those with normal coronar...
متن کاملLeft main coronary artery stenosis after aortic valve replacement.
We describe two cases with iatrogenic left main coronary artery stenosis where a symptomatology of unstable angina appeared within three months of aortic valve replacement surgery. One patient was treated with aortocoronary bypass and the other with angioplasty and stenting.
متن کاملMechanisms of angina in aortic stenosis.
The pathophysiology of cardiac pain in pure aortic stenosis has primarily been ascribed to an augmented left ventricular demand outstripping energy supply. This report provides evidence that not only is the energy demand increased but the supply in terms of coronary vascular reserve may be impaired, particularly in response to stress. Hemodynamic and coronary circulatory changes were studied in...
متن کاملCombined percutaneous balloon dilatation of the aortic valve and coronary angioplasty.
A 75 year old man with severe angina caused by aortic stenosis and coronary artery disease was considered to be unsuitable for cardiac surgery after the recent removal of a bronchial carcinoma. Combined percutaneous balloon dilatation of the aortic valve and right coronary angioplasty considerably ameliorated the patient's angina.
متن کاملClinical, haemodynamic, and coronary angiographic correlates of angina pectoris in patients with severe aortic valve disease.
Of 88 consecutive patients aged 20 to 77 years with severe symptomatic aortic valve disease requiring surgery, 51 patients had angina pectoris; of these 51, 41 had predominant aortic stenosis and 10 had severe aortic regurgitation. All patients with angina pectoris underwent coronary angiography; significant coronary arterial disease was encounted in 24 per cent of those with aortic stenosis an...
