Abstract
The purpose of preparing this lecture is due to the prevalence of valvular disease, especially aortic stenosis. The problem is that the course of the disease is usually asymptomatic, but when the stenosis becomes symptomatic, the mortality rate rises sharply. Improving outcomes depends on identifying individuals at risk, accurately assessing severity, and treating comorbidities. Over the past 5–10 years, knowledge about these aspects of the problem has developed significantly. The lecture attempts to reveal the tendencies of this development, which are important for internists

Keywords: aortic valve; aortic stenosis
