relation between Aortic valve sclerosis and severity of coronary heart disease
significant relation between severity of aortic valve sclerosis assessed by trans thoracic echo doppler quantified by Chandra et al on a scale of 0 to 3. 0 (no involvement). 1. mild (minor involvement of one leaflet) 2. moderate (minor involvement of two leaflets or extensive involvement of one leaflet. 3. severe (extensive involvement of two leaflets or involvement of all three leaflets).
