aortic, or aortic valve stenosis, is heart disease characterized by narrowing or obstruction of the aortic valve.
As it can be understood, the presence of this condition affects the flow of blood through the opening created by the valve itself and this affects the amount of blood introduced into the aorta.
Aortic stenosis is included in the list of heart diseases better known as valvulopathies, ie heart valve diseases; other examples of valvulopathies are aortic insufficiency, mitral stenosis, mitral valve prolapse, mitral insufficiency, etc.
