results in addition to the family history provided‚ Mrs. Steel portrays strong indications for having aortic valve stenosis. Generally‚ the occurrence of valvular stenosis is a result of the flaps stiffening or thickening; therefore‚ preventing the heart valve from fully opening‚ which‚ as a result‚ reduces the rate of blood flowing through the valve. In this case‚ stenosis of the aortic valve affects the outflow‚ diminishing the amount of blood reaching the rest of the body vessels as well as

Relapsing polychondritis Syphilitic aortitis Systemic lupus erythematosus B The catheter data are characteristic of aortic incompetence: there is a wide pulse pressure in the aorta accompanied by a very high left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP); a LVEDP greater than 20 mmHg is suggestive of irreversible LV dysfunction. All of the conditions listed are associated with aortic regurgitation. However‚ the clinical description best fits with Marfan’s syndrome. Marfan’s syndrome is a connective
