Preoperative global longitudinal strain predicts myocardial hypertrophy burden but not the magnitude of reverse remodeling after surgical aortic valve replacement in severe aortic stenosis

Global longitudinal strain (GLS) is a marker of subclinical myocardial dysfunction and predicts adverse outcomes in severe aortic stenosis. However, its ability to predict the magnitude of left ventricular (LV) reverse remodeling following surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) remains uncertain. In 94 patients with...
