Overview

Majority of the patients with aortic sclerosis are aged beyond 65 years and are associated with a significant increase in the risk of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction even in the absence of hemodynamically significant left ventricular outflow tract obstruction.[1][2][3]

Demographics

Age

Aortic sclerosis commonly affects the elderly population aged above 65 years.[4][3][2][1]

Based on a large cohort study,[2] that enrolled 5201 subjects aged 65 years or above demonstrated among patients aged 75 years and above, aortic sclerosis was present in ~37% patients while aortic stenosis was seen only in 2.6% patients.[5]

Based on another study that evaluated 425 patients with a mean age of 68 +/- 15 years, presenting to the emergency room with chest pain, an higher rate of aortic sclerosis was identified (~49%).[6]

Although rare, the prevalence of aortic sclerosis has been observed in middle-aged patients with an increase incidence observed as age advances.[7][8]
