Severe aortic stenosis without left ventricular hypertrophy: prevalence, predictors, and short-term follow up after aortic valve replacement.

Abstract: Objectives-The purpose of the present study in patients with severe aortic stenosis was to assess the prevalence of absent left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) (determined according to mass criteria), to identify predictors of absent LVH, and to assess short-term left ventricular adaptation and prognosis after aortic valve replacement.

“…7 Conversely, the absence of hypertrophy in one third of the patients with severe AS seems to have no adverse effects on systolic function or survival. 8,9 Experimental studies in genetically modified animal models are consistent with clinical observations. 10 In addition, no association was found between AS severity and the magnitude or pattern of LVH using cardiac magnetic resonance.…”

“…During the early phases of this compensation, the systolic and diastolic function may remain preserved. However, diastolic function gradually becomes abnormal due to the added muscle mass and impaired relaxation of the hypertrophied ventricle and eventually left atrial enlargement will also ensue [4][5][6][7]. Once compensatory mechanisms have been overrun, left ventricular systolic function will become impaired.…”
