Age-dependent clinical and echocardiographic manifestations of aortic stenosis in an unselected, non-biased cohort.

Background: Age, clinical presentation and echocardiographic parameters are important factors in the decision on an individualized therapeutic strategy for patients with aortic stenosis (AS). Less is known about this information in a non-selected non-biased cohort.

Methods: We performed a retrospective, systematic analysis of patients admitted to our hospital from 1/1/2014 to 1/6/2018 with the diagnosis of AS.
