Valvular heart disease is caused by stenosis, or abnormal narrowing of the cardiac valves, causing obstructed blood flow and blood regurgitation. In essence, the valves just don’t work as they are intended.
According to the American Heart Association, about 5 million Americans are diagnosed with valvular heart disease each year.
