Key Concepts o Echocardiography remains the gold standard for diagnosis and follow up patients with valvular heart disease. Stenotic valvular lesions can be monitored clinically until symptoms appear ● Regurgitant valvular lesions require careful echocardiographic monitoring for left ventricular function and may require surgery even if no symptoms are present 复旦大学附属中山医院 Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University @
