35. Why are so many pts with AS denied surgery ? B.Iung, Eur Heart J 2005 EHS : 216 pts with severe symptomatic AS (angina or NYHA Cl III/IV)  AVR = 67 % medical= 33 %  Multivariate analysis LVEF [OR= 2.27 for EF 30-50 % = 5.15 for EF ≤ 30 % Age [OR= 1.84 for 80-85 yrs = 3.38 for ≥ 85 yrs vs 75-80 Associated with no surgery

36. AS and LV systolic dysfunction In the majority of pts with mild-moderate systolic dysfunction, decrease in SV and EF is related to reversible mismatch, likely to reverse when obstruction is relieved  pts with severe AS and EF < 50 % : Cl IC for AVR (ESC guidelines, 2008)

37. AS and LV systolic dysfunction Severe decrease in EF may be caused by decreased contractility associated with fibrosis due to hypertrophy or surimposed MI. Secondary improvement in LV function is uncertain. The subgroup of pts with severely depressed EF and low flow raises diagnostic and therapeutic difficulties

64. AS and poor LV function Conclusion - 1 LV dysfunction is an uncommon consequence of AS (< 10 %) MPG > 30 mmHg despite low EF in favor of mismatch and represents an indication for AVR

65. Conclusion - 2 The subgroup of pts with severe LV dysfunction, LF, LMPG poses diagnostic and therapeutic difficulties : due to the flow dependence of the main hemodynamic criteria, the diagnosis of severe AS is based on anatomy and the response to Dobutamine infusion Patients with CR should undergo valve intervention as well as patients without CR but with low comorbidity, MPG > 20 mmHg and no extensive scar of MI

66. Conclusion - 3 Despite the recommendations and a risk-benefit ratio in favor of surgery,a large proportion of symptomatic pts remains not operated on and referral to surgical departments should be encouraged to have more interdisciplinary discussions and to optimize therapeutic indications
