Frontiers in Physiology, 2017 Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is a common congenital cardiac malformation affecting 1–2% of people. BAV results from fusion of two adjacent aortic valve cusps, and is associated with dilatation of the aorta, known as bicuspid valve associated aortopathy ...

A heart in a heart: a case report of spontaneous flail of bicuspid aortic valve
Journal of Medical Case Reports, 2021 Background Aortic regurgitation is attributed to congenital and acquired abnormalities of the aortic valve or aortic valve supporting structures. The most common cause of aortic regurgitation is atherosclerotic degeneration of the valve, especially in ...

Long-term Transcatheter Aortic Valve Durability [PDF]
, 2019 Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has become the standard of care for high-risk and inoperable surgical patients and a valid alternative to surgery for low- and intermediate-risk patients with severe, symptomatic aortic stenosis.

Osteoprotegerin inhibits aortic valve calcification and preserves valve function in hypercholesterolemic mice. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 There are no rigorously confirmed effective medical therapies for calcific aortic stenosis. Hypercholesterolemic Ldlr (-/-) Apob (100/100) mice develop calcific aortic stenosis and valvular cardiomyopathy in old age.

The phyllotaxis of the aortic valve
Monaldi Archives for Chest Disease, 2019 Biological systems ubiquitously and inevitably exhibit stochasticity in traits from the molecular level to the multicellular and morphological level. However, there are several examples of natural events that might be described in mathematical terms. Plants grow in a structured and geometric way to maximize their sun exposure for photosynthesis while ...

Imaging of Bioprosthetic Valve Dysfunction after Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation. [PDF]
, 2023 Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has become the standard of care in elderly high-risk patients with symptomatic severe aortic stenosis. Recently, TAVI has been increasingly performed in younger-, intermediate- and lower-risk populations ...
