What is the central question of this study? How are dynamic cerebral autoregulation and brain vasoreactivity influenced by severe aortic stenosis and its surgical treatment? What are the main findings and their importance? Dynamic cerebral autoregulation is preserved in the long term in patients with severe aortic stenosis and does not change after surgical aortic valve replacement. However, carbon dioxide vasoreactivity is impaired in these patients.
