title: [Importance of echocardiography in aortic valve disorders].
abstract: It would seem that, despite certain limitations, echocardiography may be considered to be an important method of investigation in the diagnosis and prognosis of aortic valve disease. Quantitative measurements may possible study of the progression of the lesions. Nevertheless, echocardiography only appears to be a simple technique and emphasis should be placed on the importance of a complete investigation as well as the quality of the recordings to be studied.
