Summary

The optimal timing of surgical intervention in asymptomatic patients with severe aortic regurgitation remains controversial. As per cardiac magnetic resonance assessment, early surgical treatment will be compared with conventional guideline-based strategy in asymptomatic patients with severe aortic regurgitation.
