Calcification of the aortic valve Severe regurgitation is the result of incomplete closure of the aortic valve and is the result of an enlarged aortic annulus. Blood from the aortic valve returns to the left ventricle, and aortic valve calcification is the deposition of calcium salts on the aortic valve. Treatment includes medical treatment, surgical treatment and so on. 1. Internal medicine treatment: without clinical symptoms, severe cases are usually followed up once every six months. The content includes clinical symptoms, ultrasound examination of the left ventricle size, left ventricle ejection fraction and so on. If the left ventricle is enlarged but the systolic function is normal, vasodilators such as nifedipine can be used according to the doctor’s instruction, which can improve the condition and relieve the symptoms. 2. Surgery: Surgery can be performed if there is symptomatic left ventricular insufficiency or asymptomatic left ventricular systolic insufficiency. Aortic valve replacement is used in primary cases and aortic valvuloplasty in secondary cases. In case of trauma, infective endocarditis leading to valve perforation, valve repair can be performed. In case of aortic related diseases, medical treatment is needed as soon as possible to avoid delay.
