![The most frequent cardiovascular manifestations of AS are aortic insufficiency and conduction disorders.[2] Up to 20% of patients with AS have conduction disorders, of which atrioventricular block is the most common.[5,6] Compared with the general population, patients with AS have a 30% to 50% increase in the risk of acute coronary syndromes, deep venous thromboembolism, pulmonary embolism, or stroke.[8] They also have a 25% to 60% greater risk of ischemic heart disease, congestive heart failure, and valvular heart disease.[9] Heart failure may occur secondary to mitral insufficiency.[2] Aortic dissection, which is a rare but frequently fatal complication of aortic insufficiency, has also been observed in patients with AS.[2] Other potential cardiovascular complications include left ventricular diastolic dysfunction, pericarditis, myocardial disease, peripheral vascular disease, and hypertension.[2,3,5]](https://owqo93fpiuc4633lp1zthz57-wpengine.netdna-ssl.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/11/2020/08/thinkstockphotos474641458101_1032729-544x306.jpg)
