Artery Research, 2013
Background: The aortic valve is normally tricuspid but may vary in that it can be made up of 1, 2 or 4 leaflets with each of these often associated with aortopathy, most commonly aortic dilatation.

Relation of Bicuspid Aortic Valve Morphology to the Dilatation Pattern of the Proximal Aorta: Focus on the Transvalvular Flow

Cardiology Research and Practice, 2012
Whether the dilatation of proximal aorta in patients with bicuspid aortic valve is secondary to hemodynamic effects related to the abnormal aortic valve or a primary manifestation of the genetic disorder remains controversial.
