Zusammenfassung
Die Assoziation von Aortenstenose und gastrointestinalen Angiodysplasien bzw. okkulten gastrointestinalen Blutungen wird als „Heyde-Syndrom” bezeichnet. Ein epidemiologischer und kausal begründeter Zusammenhang beider Erkrankungen ist bis heute umstritten. In der vorliegenden Arbeit wird der aktuelle Kenntnisstand über das Heyde-Syndrom vermittelt. Hierbei wird auf Epidemiologie, Pathogenese und klinische Implikationen eingegangen.
Summary
The co-existence of aortic-valve stenosis and gastrointestinal angiodysplasia or occult gastrointestinal bleeding is called Heyde's syndrome. There is, however, still controversy about its epidemiology and pathogenesis. Current knowledge of Heyde's sSyndrome is reviewed here, with special regard of its epidemiology, pathogenesis and clinical features.
