Valvular heart diseases (VHDs) place a hemodynamic load on the left and/or right ventricle that, if severe, prolonged, and untreated, damages the myocardium, leading to heart failure and death. Because all VHDs are mechanical problems, definitive therapy usually requires valve repair or replacement.
