https://www.Heart-Valve-Surgery.com - While the majority of heart valve repair and replacement operations are scheduled, select patients may require an emergency surgery.
Emergency surgery may be needed for patients with critical aortic valve disease including aortic stenosis which is commonly referred to as the "silent killer".
Furthermore, the presence of an aortic aneurysm, which is often associated with aortic valve disease, may accelerate the need for an emergency procedure considering the life-threatening risks of an aortic dissection or aorta rupture.
To learn more about emergency cases associated with aortic valve disease and aortic aneurysms, we interviewed Dr. Christopher Mehta, a leading cardiac surgeon at Northwestern Medicine in Chicago, Illinois.
Questions asked-and-answered in this video with Dr. Mehta include:
1. What is aortic valve disease? What are the symptoms and risks?
2. How does aortic valve disease progress?
3. Is aortic valve disease associated with other cardiac disorders? If so, which ones?
4. What is the relationship between aortic valve disease and aortic aneurysms?
5. Can other cardiac conditions (aortic aneurysms, coronary artery disease, atrial fibrillation) lead to emergencies for aortic stenosis patients?
6. What should patients do to avoid emergency surgery?
7. What is Dr. Mehta's number one piece of advice for patients with aortic valve disease and an aortic aneurysm to avoid an emergency?
