Overview
Aortic insufficiency can be an acute illness or a chronic illness and the causes differ depending upon the acuity of the disease. In general, aortic insufficiency is due to abnormalities of the aortic valve itself or the aortic root.
Differential Diagnosis of the Causes of Acute Aortic Insufficiency
In alphabetical order:
- After aortic balloon valvotomy[1]
- Aortic dissection
- Bacterial Endocarditis
- Blunt chest trauma
- Myxomatous aortic valve
- Rheumatic Fever
Differential Diagnosis of the Causes of Chronic Aortic Insufficiency
In alphabetical order:
- Ankylosing Spondylitis
- Aortic Dissection
- Arteriosclerosis
- Bacterial Endocarditis
- Bechterew's Disease
- Bicuspid aortic valve
- Cystic medial necrosis of the aorta
- Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome
- Hypertension
- Marfan Syndrome
- Myxomatous aortic valve
- Polymyalgia Rheumatica
- Pseudoxanthoma Elasticum
- Reiter's Syndrome
- Rheumatic Fever
- Rheumatoid Arthritis
- Sinus of Valsalva Aneurysm
- Syphilis
- Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
- Turner's Syndrome
- Ventricular Septal Defect
- Weight loss medications
Differential Diagnosis Based Upon Aortic Valvular Causes
- Bicuspid aortic valve
- Collagen vascular disease

- Endocarditis
- Rheumatic fever
Differential Diagnosis Based Upon Abnormalities of the Ascending Aorta
