What happens during the disease - other aortic valve disorders

Other aortic valve disorders are caused by a variety of underlying conditions, including genetic abnormalities, inflammatory diseases, and calcification of the valve. these conditions can lead to valve narrowing, leakage, or structural changes that can lead to a decrease in blood flow and oxygen supply to the heart. as a result, the heart may not be able to pump blood efficiently, leading to symptoms such as shortness of breath, fatigue, chest pain, and palpitations.
