Patient's Query
25 year old / Female How come in such a young age echo report finding shown mild thickened ncc leaflet? Never had any rheumatic fever or any such thing which can contribute to it as mentioned in many article read online. How much risk my heart is at this situation? Do as growing old I am going to suffer from valve disease?
Answered by Dr. Bhaskar Semitha
It is possible to have a mild thickened NCC leaflet without a history of rheumatic fever. This condition may not always indicate a serious heart issue. However, it is essential to consult a cardiologist who can evaluate your heart health and guide you on any potential risks or future implications.
