2 MALATTIE VALVOLARI AORTICHE
STENOSI INSUFFICIENZA FORME MISTE Prevalente stenosi Prevalente insufficienza

3 La stenosi aortica è la più diffusa malattia delle valvole cardiache
Secondo le stime più recenti, questa affezione colpisce il 4,6% della popolazione oltre i 75 anni, un quinto dei quali deve essere operato nel giro di 2-3 anni di anni, altrimenti non può sopravvivere. Nonostante la gravità, questa per gli esperti è una malattia sottovalutata e spesso non trattata in maniera appropriata Da una ricerca dell’istituto britannico Opinion Matters su un campione rappresentativo della popolazione italiana over 60 è emerso che solo il 7,7% delle persone è preoccupata per le valvole cardiache. Sono i tumori (24,6%) e il morbo di Alzheimer (20%) le malattie che spaventano di più. The Huffington Post

Altre rare patologie Patologie acquisite su base congenita? Fibrosi e calcificazione su valvole tricuspidi/bicuspidi asimmetriche?

9 Numerose varianti Patologiche
Bicuspid and dysplastic valve with both coronary arteries arising from the anterior facing sinus. Bicuspid valve with the leaflets and sinuses arranged in left–right fashion. A raphe is present in the right leaflet A valve with three thickened leaflets. One of the leaflets is considerably larger than the other two. This valve with three leaflets has been cut longitudinally to show the thick and gelatinous looking leaflets. There are abundant calcific nodules in this severely stenotic valve from an elderly patient. This unicommisural and unifoliate valve has a tiny eccentric orifice.

13 Aortic valve disease and clinical implications
Aortic valve disease is one of the most common congenital cardiac defects, occurring in 5% of all children with heart disease. Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is the most common congenital cardiac malformation, affecting 1-2% of the population, with strong male predominance. Individuals may have a normally functioning BAV, and may be unaware of its presence and the potential risk of impending complications. They may typically remain asymptomatic until the third or fourth decade of life, when the valve becomes dysfunctional. BAV is associated with both valve disease and aortic disease, thereby leading to increased morbidity and mortality, including other cardiovascular malformations coronary anomalies, coartaction etc. aortic valve disorders aortic wall abnormalities endocarditis Bicuspid aortic valve phenotype and aortic disease: a magnetic resonance study David W Fitz*, James C Carr and Edwin Wu J Cardiovasc MR 2011

14 Classification of bicuspid aortic valve
Four valve morphologies on 217 cases: type 1, fusion of the right and left cusps (n=152); type 2, fusion of the right and non-coronary cusps (n=48); type 3, fusion of the left and non-coronary cusps (n=9); and unicuspid, two fusions (n=8). further characterized by the number of sinuses, two or three, and the presence or absence of a raphe. Conclusion Type 1 BAV is the most frequent phenotype. Two sinus valves are more common among type 2 and type 3 phenotypes. Type 2 is associated with moderate to severe aortic stenosis a larger mid-ascending aortic diameter.

15 Bav and ascending aorta pathology
Anatomo-Clinical demonstration of progressive aortic dilatation Abnormalities in components of the extracellular matrix or aberrant vascular matrix remodeling might contribute to abnormal valvulogenesis and a structurally weakened aortic root. Other studies supports the concept of an independent aortic remodeling process throughout childhood among patients with a bicuspid aortic valve may precede frank aneurysm formation.

17 Bav vs tav Ascending aortic dilatation is rarely associated with coronary artery disease regardless of aortic valve morphology Differences in clinical presentation between patients with tricuspid aortic valves (TAVs) or bicuspid aortic valves (BAVs) and aortic valve disease are evident. METHODS: 702 patients with aortic valve and/or ascending aortic pathology; 202 also had concomitant coronary artery disease. RESULTS: A BAV was commonly found in patients with isolated valve disease (BAV 47%, TAV 53%) and frequently associated with ascending aortic dilatation (BAV 80%, TAV 20%). In patients with coronary artery disease, a TAV was commonly found (TAV 84%, BAV 16%). The combination of ascending aortic dilatation and coronary artery disease was markedly rare regardless of valve morphology (TAV, 7 out of 38; BAV, 6 out of 127). The distribution of valve pathology and clinical parameters was similar in patients with TAV and BAV with coronary artery disease (P ≥ .12). Without coronary artery disease, parameters associated with cardiovascular risks were more often seen in patients with TAV than in patients with BAV (P ≤ .0001).

18 Ascending aortic dilatation is rarely associated with coronary artery disease regardless of aortic valve morphology (2) CONCLUSIONS: Coronary artery disease is uncommon in surgical patients with BAV, but it is associated with TAV, advanced age, and male gender. Coronary artery disease and ascending aortic dilatation rarely coexist, regardless of valve phenotype. Differences in the prevalence of coronary artery disease or ascending aortic dilatation between patients with TAV and BAV are not explained by differences in cardiovascular risks or the distribution of valve pathology.

19 Stenosi valvolare senile calcifica non patologia displastica - patogenesi simil-aterosclerotica

20 Fattori aterogeni/genetici

21 Valvola aortica calcifica
The process of valve disease is believed to be initiated with the development of atherosclerosis along the aortic surface of the valve which, subsequent to aortic valvular osteoblast differentiation, calcifies. Early in the disease process, the thickened aortic valve is said to be sclerotic; that is, although thickening of the valves is present, there is not yet obstruction of the valve orifice.  Later in the disease process, as the thickening of the valve progresses and the valve orifice becomes significantly obstructed, the valve is said to be frankly calcific.

22 Malattia reumatica In rheumatic fever, antistreptococcal antibodies produced by B lymphocytes cross- react with host-tissue epitopes, producing inflammation in a number of organ systems, including the heart and its mitral and aortic valves. Any or all 4 valves may be involved. Inflammation induces angiogenesis in the normally avascular valve layers; over a period of months or years, thickening of the valve develops as inflamed elastic tissue becomes replaced by irregular masses of collagen fibers. Recurrent episodes of rheumatic fever produce progressive damage to the host’s valves.
