There are 4 valves in the heart. At any time in life, due to various reasons, problems may occur in one or more of these valves. The causes of this disease may be congenital or hereditary.
The most affected valves are the aortic and mitral valves. However, thirdly, the tricuspid valve may also be affected and cause problems.
Valve-related disease is the condition where blood flows backwards as a result of decreased blood flow or insufficiency as a result of narrowing of the valve. Stenosis or insufficiency may occur one by one, or both may occur.
Since this disorder seen in the heart valves will increase the burden on the heart, if it lasts for a long time, it may cause irreversible disorders in the structure of the heart.
