Myocardial Fibrosis and Reverse Remodeling After Valve Replacement in Chronic Aortic Regurgitation.
Importance Patients undergoing aortic valve replacement (AVR) for chronic severe aortic regurgitation (AR) based on current guideline-based thresholds may have irreversible myocardial scarring. Objective To quantify reverse remodeling, functional recovery, and symptomatic change after AVR and assess whether myocardia...
