What is Aortic Valve Disease Pathophysiology about?

1. The aortic valve develops from the truncus arteriosus during embryonic heart development. 2. Aortic stenosis is most commonly caused by age-related degenerative calcification of the aortic valve leaflets. 3. Severe aortic stenosis leads to left ventricular hypertrophy to compensate for the increased afterload, and later left ventricular dilatation and dysfunction if untreated.
