Evolving Surgical Approaches to Bicuspid Aortic Valve Associated Aortopathy [PDF]
Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2019 Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is the most common congenital cardiac pathology which results from the fusion of two adjacent aortic valve cusps. It is associated with dilatation of the aorta, known as bicuspid valve-associated aortopathy or bicuspid ...

First-trimester aortic root replacement in a pregnant woman with previously undiagnosed Marfan syndrome [PDF]
European Journal of Case Reports in Internal MedicineAortopathy encompasses a spectrum of aortic aneurysms and dissections and represents a major cause of cardiovascular morbidity during pregnancy, particularly in women with heritable connective tissue disorders such as Marfan syndrome.

Long-term outcomes in heritable thoracic aortic disease
Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022 Heritable aortic aneurysm is an increasingly recognized cause of morbidity and mortality. Whilst Marfan syndrome (MFS) is well-known, the clinical presentation and prognosis of more newly described genetic syndromes is less familiar to clinicians.

Clinical implications of the biomechanics of bicuspid aortic valve and bicuspid aortopathy
Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022 Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV), which affects up to 2% of the general population, results from the abnormal fusion of the cusps of the aortic valve. Patients with BAV are at a higher risk for developing aortic dilatation, a condition known as bicuspid ...

MiR-145 expression and rare NOTCH1 variants in bicuspid aortic valve-associated aortopathy. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 MicroRNAs (miRNAs) may serve as elegant tool to improve risk stratification in bicuspid aortic valve (BAV)-associated aortopathy. However, the exact pathogenetic pathway by which miRNAs impact aortopathy progression is unknown.
