Aortic Stenosis
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
Aortic stenosis is a narrowing of the heart's aortic valve, which hinders the normal flow of blood from the heart to the rest of the body.
Possible manifestations: It may occur without symptoms for a time; as it progresses, fatigue, shortness of breath with exertion, dizziness, or chest discomfort may appear.
When to seek care? In the face of unusual fatigue, a sensation of fainting, or difficulty breathing during exertion, an evaluation is recommended.
Which specialist treats it? The cardiologist evaluates the functioning of the valve and, depending on the case, the cardiovascular surgeon takes part. A timely cardiology evaluation allows for appropriate follow-up of this condition.
