teach me aortic stenosis starting from rheumatic heart disease to surgical management, mch cardiac surgery level in detailed from standard textbooks and literature, pictures lacked notes plz
| Part | Topic |
|---|---|
| 1 | Rheumatic Heart Disease - molecular mimicry, Aschoff bodies, Jones criteria, chronic RHD pathology |
| 2 | Full etiology classification - Calcific, Bicuspid, Rheumatic, rare causes |
| 3 | Pathophysiology - Laplace law, Frank-Starling, concentric hypertrophy, progression rates |
