4 year old with aortic insufficiency
by RV9A, Feb 17, 2008 10:44PM
My 4 year old daughter was recently diagnosed with a mild form of aortic insufficiency. Dr. said that she could continue normal activities and he wanted to see her again in one year and not to worry she didn't need surgery and that they really couldn't do anything but monitor her. My question is: Do mild forms of this disease always progress to more leakage which will enlarge the heart and eventually require some type of serious heart surgery? Or are there cases where minor leakage will just continue over her hopefully normal life span? I would really like to know the truth. thanks
