Objective The optimal medical therapy after surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) for aortic stenosis remains unknown. Renin–angiotensin system (RAS) inhibitors could potentially improve cardiac remodelling and clinical outcomes after SAVR. Both treatment with ACE inhibitors (aHR 0.89 (95% CI 0.82

Even in patients whose moderate stenosis undergoes thrombosis, most angiograms show greater than 50% stenosis after the event. However, one can certainly imagine that many thromboses of non-obstructive lesions completely lyse and do not leave a stenosis on same day or next day angiogram. Lindahl et al.

1-4 Surprisingly, serial angiographic studies have revealed that the plaque at the site of the culprit lesion of a future acute myocardial infarction often does not cause stenosis that, as seen on the antecedent angiogram, is sufficiently severe to limit flow. There may be a chronic tight stenosis and a non-obstructed lesion that thrombosed.
