Key result
Surgery for severe aortic stenosis achieves ~94% long-term survival and excellent functional outcomes.
Why the study?
The study was conducted to evaluate long-term survival, physical activity, hemodynamic parameters on aortic prosthesis, and cardiac remodeling after surgical treatment of severe aortic stenosis.

Reinforces role of SAVR in severe AS; extends prior evidence with real-world long-term survival and remodeling data.
Does surgical treatment improve long-term survival and cardiac remodeling in patients with severe aortic stenosis?
Surgical treatment of severe aortic stenosis provides excellent long-term survival (94% at 10 years) and significant reverse cardiac remodeling.
Ivanov et al. (2026) studied this question. Surgical treatment of severe aortic stenosis achieved a 94% 10-year survival rate, excellent functional outcomes (98% NYHA class I-II), and a 23% regression in myocardial mass index.
