Aortic valve stenosis, illustration
Illustration of a moderate aortic valve stenosis (narrowing) caused by rheumatic fever. In the case of this defect, two sails at the commissures have fused together due to rheumatic processes and thus form a bicuspid aortic valve. Aortic valve stenosis may lead to heart failure., Photo by MEDICAL GRAPHICS/MICHAEL HOFFMANN/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY
