Özet

Background and aim of the study: Calcific and degenerative aortic diseases (CDADs) are a group of disorders that mostly affect the elderly population and may progress and warrant aortic valve replacement. It is believed that oxidative stress plays a role in the progression of the diseases. Several markers of oxidative stress were evaluated in a small cohort of patients with CDADs, and a control group with similar characteristics.
