Multiple valve diseases - what does this mean

Multiple valve disease is a condition where multiple heart valves are affected by either stenosis (narrowing) or regurgitation (leaking). it is usually caused by a combination of age-related wear and tear of the valves, infection, or a congenital defect.

What happens during the disease - multiple valve diseases

Multiple valve diseases is a condition in which there is an abnormality in the structure or function of one or more of the four heart valves (mitral, aortic, tricuspid, and pulmonary). this can be caused by a variety of factors such as congenital defects, infection, inflammation, or atherosclerosis. in some cases, the valve may become thickened, narrowed, or leaky, resulting in reduced blood flow and leading to symptoms of heart failure, arrhythmias, or stroke.
