The Hammock Sign in Computed Tomography as a Detection Aid for Bicuspid Aortic Valves
Introduction: Bicuspid aortic valve is difficult to detect on standard transverse images. Purpose: We aimed to investigate the usefulness of the hammock sign for detection of bicuspid aortic valve.

The Ross Procedure with a Bicuspid Pulmonary Autograft [PDF]
BACKGROUND >We illustrate the steps for a Ross procedure in a 24-years old patient who presented with an unicuspid aortic valve with mixed aortic stenosis/aortic regurgitation and who was intraoperatively found to have a bicuspid pulmonary autograft, warranting the need for concurrent repair of the autograft.

Pulmonary artery and right ventricle function in patients with bicuspid aortic valve
Objective: Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is a complex developmental anomaly caused by abnormal aortic leaflet formation during valvulogenesis. The present study is an assessment of the effects of BAV disease on the ascending aorta and pulmonary artery (PA),

A comparison of the diagnostic capabilities of the ratio of acceleration time to total left ventricular ejection time (AT/ET) in determining the severity of aortic stenosis in patients with bicuspid and tricuspid aortic valve: retrospective comparative study [PDF]
Objective. We aimed to compare the diagnostic capabilities of the ratio of acceleration time to total left ventricular ejection time (AT/ET) in determining the severity of aortic stenosis (AS) in patients with bicuspid and tricuspid aortic valves (AV).

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