Overview
The risk of developing aortic stenosis following rheumatic heart disease can be minimized with early antibiotic therapy among patients with documented streptococcal pharyngitis (strep throat).[1] Bicuspid aortic valve disease is a congenital variant and cannot be prevented. As for calcific aortic stenosis, a number of small, observational studies have demonstrated an association between lowering cholesterol levels and decreasing the progression of the aortic stenosis;[2] however, randomized clinical trials have failed to corroborate these findings.[3][4][5]
