(2012, background): “Pathology reviews have demonstrated progressive increase with age in the proportion of trileaflet valves in severe AS patients, from 15% in those under 60 years to 60% over 70 years (72% for those over 80 years) (2).”

(2017, background): “The degree of valve calcification is a predictor of clinical outcome including heart failure, need for aortic valve replacement and death.(5,8) Radiation induced aortic stenosis represents a special challenge as the aortic valve is often heavily calcified in a younger population making the assessmen”
