Quadriscupid Aortic Valve with Concurrent Aortic Stenosis and Insufficiency
We present the case of a 22-year-old man with a congenital mixed aortic valve dysfunction who underwent cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) for the assessment of aortic valve morphology and function prior to valve replacement.

Aortic valve repair and aortic valve–sparing operations [PDF]
Attempts to correct aortic insufficiency by means of aortic valve repair started soon after the advent of open-chest cardiac surgery. Correction of cusp prolapse was performed by suturing the free margins of 2 cusps from the commissures to the central portion or by excising the noncoronary aortic cusp and sinus, transforming a tricuspid into a bicuspid

Aortic stenosis (AS) in bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) remains a challenge for transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). BAV is a condition encountered in young adults as well as elderly patients. Frequently we face in clinical practice elderly patients with BAV and severe AS, but there is little evidence concerning TAVI in this population.

Use of Aortic Valve Homografts for Aortic Valve Replacement [PDF]
One hundred sixty-nine patients underwent replacement of the aortic valve with an aortic valve homograft; of these patients 17 had concomitant commissurotomy or annuloplasty for an associated mitral valve lesion. Homografts were prepared by sterilization with beta-propiolactone solution and stored in Hanks' solution, or were prepared by sterilization ...

Safety and efficacy of two-port thoracoscopic aortic valve replacement
Background Pure aortic valve disease is common and has been treated with sternotomy aortic valve replacement for decades. Minimally invasive cardiac surgery has been widely used in atrioventricular valve lesions, but totally thoracoscopic aortic valve ...
