Patient-prosthesis mismatch (PPM) is common after aortic valve replacement and has been shown to be associated with poor hemodynamic and symptomatic status, a high rate of cardiac events, and increased mortality. In this article, Philippe Pibarot and Jean G. Dumesnil highlight the importance of defining and recognizing PPM and its clinical impact. They also assert that, because PPM is a predictable and modifiable risk factor, it is vital to identify susceptible patients and to apply preventive strategies to avoid PPM or reduce its severity.
