Study on the structure and composition of aortic valve calcific deposits: Etiological aspects

Original language description

The structures and chemical compositions of valve calcific deposits were investigated. The deposits was chosen arbitrarily and subjected to chemical analysis, observation with scanning microscope, semi-quantitative determination of Ca, Mg, Na, K, P and Celements by energy dis-persive X-ray, X-ray diffraction and Fourier transform infra-red spectroscopy carried out. These deposits were found to have non-uniform internal structures composed of layers of a structureless aspidinic inorganic material, substantial amounts of voluminous organic material and in a few samples small spheres were also present. Two groups of deposits with distinctly different chemical compositions were identified: one group with a low Ca/P molar ratio (1.59) and the other group with a high (1.82) Ca/P molar ratio. The deposits belonging to the group with a low Ca/P molar ratio contain higher concentra-tion of magnesium and consist of increased amount of amorphous calcium phosphate. The deposits with a high Ca/P m
