Overview

Causes of aortic stenosis are either congenital or acquired, and its common causes vary between different age groups and between different human populations. While congenital bicuspid aortic valve is the most common cause of aortic stenosis in people below 70 years of age, acquired degenerative calcific aortic stenosis is the most common cause in older patients above 70 years of age. Rheumatic heart disease remains the most common cause of aortic stenosis worldwide and calcification, either degenerative calcification in older adults, or early calcification secondary to a congenital bicuspid aortic valve are the most common causes in North America.[1]

Causes

Valvular Aortic Stenosis

Subvalvular Aortic Stenosis

Supravalvular Aortic Stenosis

Frequency of Underlying Causes of Aortic Stenosis

According to the Euro Heart Survey[2] on valvular heart disease, the frequencies of the different underlying causes of aortic stenosis were the following:

  1. Calcific degeneration - 81.9%
  2. Rheumatic fever - 11.2% [9]
  3. Congenital - 5.6%
  4. Post-endocarditis - 1.3%

Causes of Aortic Valve Calcification:

  • Aortic stenosis is most commonly caused by age-related progressive calcification of the normal tricuspid aortic valve (>50% of cases).
  • Other causes include:

Causes of More Rapid AS Progression:

  • Normal valves have three leaflets (tricuspid), but some valves have only two (bicuspid). Aortic stenosis due to calcification of a bicuspid valve typically becomes symptomatic in the 40s and 50s whereas that due to calcification of a normal valve manifests later in the 70s and 80s. Hypertension, diabetes mellitus, hyperlipoproteinemia and uremia may speed up the process. [9]

Cause of Aortic Stenosis as a Function of Age

The cause of aortic stenosis will vary with age:[10][11]

  • Under Age 70:
    • Bicuspid aortic valve - 50%
    • Postinflammatory - 25%
    • Degenerative calcific - 18%
    • Unicommissural - 3%
    • Hypoplastic - 2%
    • Indeterminant - 2%
  • Over Age 70:
    • Degenerative calcific - 48%
    • Bicuspid - 27%
    • Postinflammatory - 23%
    • Hypoplastic - 2%

Complete Differential Diagnosis for the Causes of Aortic Stenosis

Life Threatening Causes

Life-threatening causes include conditions which may result in death or permanent disability within 24 hours if left untreated.

Common Causes

Causes by Organ System

Cardiovascular Age-induced calcification of normal tricuspid aortic valve 'wear and tear' (around the 7th or 8th decade of life), atherosclerosis (normal tricuspid valve becomes rigid with age, usually stenosis develops over age 70 and it is rarely severe), congenital bicuspid aortic valve (it is twice as common in men, there is slow increase in stenosis -progressive sclerosis- and as individuals age, calcification of the aortic valve may occur and result in stenosis, this occurs in the 40s and 50s in case of bicuspid valve), prosthetic aortic valve, rheumatic fever (slowly progressive stenosis), subacute bacterial endocarditis.
Chemical / poisoning No underlying causes
Dermatologic No underlying causes
Drug Side Effect No underlying causes
Ear Nose Throat No underlying causes
Endocrine No underlying causes
Environmental Radiation.
Gastroenterologic No underlying causes
Genetic 1/3rd of supravalvular aortic stenosis cases are transmitted as an autosomal dominant trait as 60% of patients with supravalvular obstruction have williams syndrome (supravalvular obstruction, intellectual impairment and facial abnormalities).
Hematologic No underlying causes.
Iatrogenic Radiation treatment to the chest.
Infectious Disease Bacterial endocarditis in which the vegetations may favor increase risk of stenosis.
Musculoskeletal / Ortho No underlying causes
Neurologic No underlying causes
Nutritional / Metabolic Fabry disease, Homozygous type II hypercholesterolemia, Ochronosis, Paget's disease
Obstetric/Gynecologic No underlying causes
Oncologic No underlying causes.
Opthalmologic No underlying causes
Overdose / Toxicity No underlying causes
Psychiatric No underlying causes
Pulmonary No underlying causes
Renal / Electrolyte No underlying causes
Rheum / Immune / Allergy Rheumatic fever (slowly progressive stenosis).
Sexual No underlying causes
Trauma No underlying causes
Urologic No underlying causes
Miscellaneous No underlying causes
