In 109 specimens of aortic valves removed surgically from adults for isolated or dominant aortic stenosis, five types of valve were encountered. In order of decreasing frequency the types were as follows: calcification of congenitally bicuspid aortic valves (48.6%); calcification of a normally tricuspid aortic valve without commissural fusion, the so-called senile type of aortic stenosis (27.6%); calcification of an acquired bicuspid valve (12.8%); the fibrous (rheumatic)-type valve (10.1%); and calcification of congenitally unicuspid valves (0.9%). In the overall study men were more commonly represented than women by a ratio of 3:2. In only the senile type were women more commonly represented than men.
在因单纯性或主要的主动脉瓣狭窄而接受手术切除的109例成人主动脉瓣标本中，发现了五种类型的瓣膜。按出现频率由高到低排列，类型如下：先天性二叶式主动脉瓣钙化（48.6%）；正常三叶式主动脉瓣无瓣叶融合的钙化，即所谓的老年性主动脉瓣狭窄（27.6%）；后天性二叶式瓣膜钙化（12.8%）；纤维性（风湿性）瓣膜（10.1%）；先天性单叶式瓣膜钙化（0.9%）。在整个研究中，男性的比例高于女性，为3:2。只有老年性类型中女性的比例高于男性。
