Mitral stenosis
  1. Association with Rheumatic heart disease
    1. 25% of patients with rheumatic heart disease have isolated MS
      1. 40% of patients with rheumatic heart disease have combined MS/MR
      2. Other associated diseases
        1. Malignant carcinoid diseae
          1. SLE
            1. Rheumatoid Arthritis
              1. Fabry syndrome

                  1. Common in elderly
                    1. Causes functional stenosis
