Acute Aortic Insufficiency due to Rupture of an Aortic Valve Commissure
Myxomatous degeneration generally involves the atrioventricular valves (mitral and tricuspid). Rarely, it may affect the aortic or pulmonary valve. We report a case of an acute severe aortic insufficiency due to a rupture of a commissure of the aortic ...

Aortic valve insufficiency caused by a hypoplastic aortic valve in a calf. [PDF]
A 1-month-old crossbred calf was referred for examination due to marked systolic heart murmurs and poor growth. The heart murmur was most audible on the right side of the cranial thorax. Cardiomegaly was evident on chest radiography, and echocardiography demonstrated aortic regurgitation and decreased fractional shortening.

Does aortic valve repair in valve-sparing aortic root reconstruction compromise the longevity of the procedure? [PDF]
OBJECTIVES: The effect of performing aortic valve repair in combination with valve-sparing operation on the length of time for which patients are free from reoperation is unclear.

The healthcare burden of isolated aortic valve insufficiency. [PDF]
To analyze and compare the differences in mortality, healthcare utilization, and costs between patients with symptomatic and asymptomatic isolated aortic insufficiency (AI). We utilized Optum United Health Care Database for US patients who had an AI claim between 2017 and 2022, with 12 months of continuous enrollment (baseline period) prior to ...

The Influence of the Aortic Root Geometry on Flow Characteristics of a Bileaflet Mechanical Heart Valve [PDF]
Bileaflet mechanical heart valves have one of the most successful valve designs for more than 30 years. These valves are often used for aortic valve replacement, where the geometry of the aortic root sinuses may vary due to valvular disease and affect valve performance. Common geometrical sinus changes may be due to valve stenosis and insufficiency. In
