During this test, TEE was used to detect any residual regurgitation and, if present, to examine the direction of the jet and hence determine whether any new or residual cusp prolapse was present. [academic.oup.com]
Aortic valve prolapse may be detected in various cardiac disorders and does not imply the presence of aortic regurgitation, but when bicuspid aortic valves are present it may well be important in producing such regurgitation. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Cardiomegaly is present in patients with chronic AR. In acute AR, pulmonary edema is almost universally present. If the AR is due to an aortic dissection, the mediastinum may appear widened. [healio.com]

(See Presentation and Workup.) Three fourths of patients with significant aortic regurgitation survive 5 years after diagnosis; half survive for 10 years. Patients with mild to moderate regurgitation survive 10 years in 80-95% of the cases. [emedicine.medscape.com]

If your heart valve disease is causing you symptoms, the main treatment is usually surgery. Deciding on what treatment is best for you can be complicated, so it’s usually done by a team of heart specialists. [bupa.co.uk]
