Aortic valve disease that is characterized by leaking of the aortic valve of the heart causes blood to flow in the reverse direction during ventricular diastole, from the aorta into the left ventricle.
She was also found to have critical coronary artery disease that required stenting and aorticincompetence.

We describe a patient with relapsing polychondritis who developed fatal cardiac involvement comprising complete heart block, acute aorticincompetence, and cardiovascular collapse.

Therefore, clinical demonstration of hyperadrenergic response during exercise represents a simple metabolic parameter indicating alteration in myocardial metabolism in patients with chronic aorticincompetence.
