Aortic Stenosis

Aortic Stenosis

Aortic stenosis narrows the valve controlling blood flow out of the heart, forcing it to work harder with every beat. Left unmanaged, this strain can weaken the heart over time. UMC Victoria Hospital , a leading cardiac hospital in Kampala, Uganda, offers coordinated care for patients at every stage of the condition:

  • Diagnostic evaluation
    echocardiography and clinical assessment to confirm valve narrowing and its severity
  • Ongoing monitoring
    regular follow-up for patients with mild to moderate stenosis to track progression
  • Medical management
    treatment plans to control symptoms and reduce strain on the heart
  • Surgical and interventional options
    valve repair or replacement for patients who need it, guided by cardiology and cardiac surgery teams
  • Patient education
    clear guidance on symptoms to watch for and when to seek review

Our specialists provide the best aortic stenosis treatment in Uganda, guiding patients through this full pathway - from first diagnosis through long-term care - without the need for referral elsewhere.
