This picture is a picture of a normal heart and a heart with severe Aortic Stenosis. I felt this picture belonged on my blog because this is what could happen if you leave this disease untreated. The heart on the right is almost one-hundred percent taken over by extra tissue and a severely narrowed passageway. I would imagine this patient would have heart failure very soon left without treatment.
