Excerpt

Aortic stenosis (AS) as well as cardiac amyloidosis (CA) are prevalent conditions in old patients. The combination of both AS and CA has recently been identified to occur in a significant number of patients scheduled for aortic valve replacement. Age alone, however, does not fully explain the frequent overlap of the two pathologies as the prevalence of CA in individuals >80 years in the general population has been described to be <1% [1]. …
