Abstract
GLS is depressed in patients with PLF AS. This implies that subclinical myocardial dysfunction may be more prominent in PLF AS compared with normal-flow AS and suggests the possible diagnostic and prognostic value of two-dimensional global strain in identifying PLF AS. In addition, global LV afterload is an important determinant of myocardial dysfunction in patients with severe AS.
