#Aortic stenosis/regurgitation #Mitral stenosis/regurgitation - *Mitral valve stenosis* occurs when the mitral valve in the heart narrows, restricting blood flow into the main pumping chamber. The mitral valve may also leak, causing *blood to flow back through the valve each time the left ventricle contracts*. This condition is called mitral valv

#Aortic stenosis/regurgitation #Mitral stenosis/regurgitation - *Mitral valve stenosis* occurs when the mitral valve in the heart narrows, restricting blood flow into the main pumping chamber.
