Is left ventricular hypertrophy a friend or foe of patients with aortic stenosis?
Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is traditionally considered a physiological compensatory response to Resistance Training LV pressure overload, such as hypertension and aortic stenosis (AS), in an effort to maintain LV systolic function in the face of an increased afterload.According to the Laplace law, LV wall thickening lowers LV wall stress, w
