Class I
"1. Coronary angiography is recommended before Aortic valve replacement in patients with aortic stenosis at risk for CAD. (Level of Evidence: B) "
"2. Cardiac catheterization for hemodynamic measurements is recommended for assessment of severity of AS in symptomatic patients when noninvasive tests are inconclusive or when there is a discrepancy between noninvasive tests and clinical findings regarding severity of AS. (Level of Evidence: C)"
"3. Coronary angiography is recommended before AVR in patients with Aortic stenosis for whom a pulmonary autograft (Ross procedure) is contemplated and if the origin of the coronary arteries was not identified by noninvasive technique. (Level of Evidence: C)"
