There is moderate to severe aortic stenosis. Color doppler shows turbulent flow across the aortic valve. The peak velocity across the aortic valve is 240cm/s. There is mild aortic regurgitation. The aortic valve leaflets are thickened, heavily calcified and do not open well. A prosthetic tissue aortic valve has been implanted. There is no significant paravalvular leak. The leaflets open well.
