Echocardiography Findings in Patients With Myocardial Fibrosis and Severe Aortic Stenosis

Patients with aortic stenosis waiting for aortic valve repair were investigated with echocardiography preoperatively, and a myocardial biospy was taken during the operation. The investigators aim to perform a retrospective analysis of these data, to look for correlations between biopsy-verified myocardial fibrosis and echocardiography parameters. The patients also had cardiac magnetic resonance imaging performed, for a non-invasive quantification of myocardial fibrosis.
