Determining the Predominant Lesion in Patients With Severe Aortic Stenosis and Coronary Stenoses Open
Background: Patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS) often have coronary artery disease. Both the aortic valve and the coronary disease influence the blood flow to the myocardium and its ability to respond to stress; leading to exertional…
