Abstract | Aim: Pleural effusion (PE) is a common chest radiography (CXR) finding in patients with advanced cardiac disease. The pathophysiology and clinical value of PE in this setting are incompletely defined. We aimed to assess the haemodynamic correlates and prognostic impact of PE in patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS). Methods and results: We studied 471 patients (mean age 74 ± 10 years) with severe AS (indexed aortic valve area 0.42 ± 0.12 cm Conclusions: In severe AS patients, the presence of PE, particularly bilateral PE, is a marker of a poor haemodynamic constellation. Bilateral PE is associated with a substantially increased post-AVR mortality. |
