Preface

The field of valvular heart disease has exploded during the past decade, driven by new and exciting therapeutic options. Normally functioning heart valves permit a one-way blood flow through the heart. However, when valve malfunction occurs, it is of two types: valve stenosis, wherein narrowed valve orifices impede blood flow, and valve regurgitation, wherein valve incompetence permits backward flow. In general, the most effective solutions to these mechanical problems are also mechanical, consisting of valve repair or replacement. Until a decade ago, these mechanical solutions were performed surgically and, while quite effective, entailed all the risks of open-heart operations. The advent of transcatheter aortic valve replacement and transcatheter mitral valve repair brought innovative, simpler, and non-operative mechanical solutions to the patient, making therapy available to patients too high risk to benefit from surgery. These therapies also added cardiologists to the providers capable of providing them, initiating the heart team concept wherein a multidisciplinary group of providers worked in concert to decide on the therapy best suited to each individual patient. At the same time, these new therapies dramatically increased the complexity of the patients now able to be treated. It is in this new era of cardiology at which this text is aimed.

In this textbook, the experts in the field marry the old with the new, discussing the physical examination of the major valve lesions by which most valve diseases are discovered, emphasizing the imaging techniques (and their pitfalls) by which valve disease is assessed, and taking a balanced approach to the indications for therapy and the type of therapy indicated. It offers a broad exposure to issues connected to valve disease, including rheumatic fever, aortic root dilatation, infective endocarditis, and heart disease in pregnancy. The text is capped off by an interactive group of case scenarios, testing the readers skill in addressing complex problems confronted in the real world, often for which there is only a best therapy but no definitive right or wrong answer. Thus, the reader will be exposed not only to guideline-directed therapy but also to therapeutic decisions that must be made but which are not specifically spelled out in the currently available guidelines.
