Aortic Valve Stenosis

Aortic Valve Stenosis - Symptoms

​In the early stages, patients with severe aortic stenosis may have no symptoms. However, as the disease progresses, classical symptomatic of breathlessness on exertion, chest pain and syncope may be a sign of more sinister prognosis.

The typical symptoms for aortic valve stenosis include:

  • Shortness of breath, especially with exertion or when you lie down
  • Fatigue
  • Dizziness or fainting
  • Sensations of a rapid, fluttering heartbeat (heart palpitations)
  • Chest discomfort or pain

Aortic valve stenosis often does not show any symptoms, making early detection difficult. Some signs and symptoms may only show up after a doctor’s physical examination. These signs include:
