Background A quarter of patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS) were asymptomatic, and only a third of them survived at the end of 4 years. We noticed no difference in MI, stroke and major bleeding. We intended to study the effect of early AVR (eAVR) in this subset of asymptomatic patients with preserved left ventricle function.
