🗑
Reactive pulmonary hypertension is a complication of chronic untreated:   Mitral Stenosis  
🗑
Severe aortic stenosis can cause angina in the absence of CAD due to: widened pulse pressure reducing O2 supply; rapid HR reducing O2 supply; LVH resulting in O2 demand exceeding O2 supply; reversal of the usual o2- CO2 gradient in muscle   LVH Resulting in Oxygen demand exceeding oxygen supply  
🗑
Your pt Mr. Boyce N. Berry, has developed symptoms of aortic stenosis including syncope, angina, paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea. Untreated the likely outcome is:   sudden death from ventricular fibrillation within 3 years
