Estenosis aórtica: prevalencia, directrices, nuevos tratamientos y datos actuales.

Estudios epidemiológicos han determinado que una de cada ocho personas de 75 años o mayores sufren de estenosis aórtica (EA) moderada o severa.1 Varios sondeos han mostrado que muchos pacientes con EA severa no se derivan a un equipo cardiológico para evaluar una sustitución de la válvula.2 La sustitución de válvula aórtica (SVA) quirúrgica es el criterio de referencia para el tratamiento de la EA severa y la implantación de la válvula aórtica transcatéter (TAVI) ofrece una nueva opción de tratamiento para aquellos pacientes considerados de alto riesgo para la cirugía.
