Hello. The doctor would like to answer the question: "3/4 aortic valve regurgitation, 68% left ventricular function, does it need surgical intervention?" Your results are as follows:
From an ultrasound perspective, 3/4 aortic regurgitation is quite severe. But to decide whether to have surgery or not, there must be a specific clinical picture and other ultrasound parameters. Aortic regurgitation is indicated in the following cases:
Acute aortic regurgitation in aortic dissection (Stanford A), due to chest trauma, in Osler's disease (infective endocarditis) bacteria). Aortic regurgitation often presents with symptoms of heart failure and chest pain. I said I'm fine, no symptoms, so it's not this case. Aortic regurgitation with structural and functional disturbances of the left ventricle: end-diastolic T ventricular diameter >75 mm, or/and end-systolic T-VAT >55mm, and/or ejection fraction (EF) < 50%. Aortic regurgitation in combination with other lesions with indications for surgery: coronary artery disease, mitral valve disease, aortic regurgitation + aortic root dilatation (Marfan syndrome), aortic regurgitation + ventricular septal defect (Laubry-Pezzi syndrome). You should go to one of the Vinmec Health System hospitals nationwide for more advice on whether 3/4 heart valve regurgitation requires surgery.
Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Best regards!
