Bicuspid aortic valve disease [PDF]

open access: yesCanadian Medical Association Journal, 2013
Bicuspid aortic valves are present in 1%–2% of the population, with men being 3 times more commonly affected than women. This disease is more than just anatomic variation and may be associated with other heart and aorta abnormalities as a result of molecular and connective tissue derangements.[1][

Transcatheter versus surgical aortic-valve replacement in high-risk patients. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
BACKGROUND: The use of transcatheter aortic-valve replacement has been shown to reduce mortality among high-risk patients with aortic stenosis who are not candidates for surgical replacement.

Conditional deletion of RB1 in the Tie2 lineage leads to aortic valve regurgitation. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Aortic valve disease is a complex process characterized by valve interstitial cell activation, disruption of the extracellular matrix culminating in valve mineralization occurring over many years.

Age, Sex, and Valve Phenotype Differences in Fibro‐Calcific Remodeling of Calcified Aortic Valve

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2020
Background In calcific aortic valve disease on tricuspid aortic valves (TAVs), men have higher aortic valve calcification and less fibrosis than women. However, little is known in bicuspid aortic valves (BAV).

Congenital aortic valve stenosis: from pathophysiology to molecular genetics and the need for novel therapeutics

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
Congenital aortic valve stenosis (AVS) is one of the most common valve anomalies and accounts for 3%–6% of cardiac malformations. As congenital AVS is often progressive, many patients, both children and adults, require transcatheter or surgical ...

Coronary Artery Disease in Patients Undergoing Transvalvular Aortic Valve Implantation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is common in patients with severe aortic stenosis. With the advent of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) as a therapeutic option, management of CAD in such patients has undergone a revolution.

Frailty and aortic valve disease [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2013
Frailty is a common occurrence in elderly persons and is present in approximately half of the patients being screened for transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) therapy. Accurate assessment of the likelihood of benefit from intervention in the older patient with aortic stenosis is critical with both surgical aortic valve replacement and TAVR now
