Risk factors for paravalvular leak after transcatheter aortic valve replacement [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Objective. To assess risk factors for paravalvular leak (PVL) after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) in a large single-center cohort, including measurement of aortic valve calcification using a reproducible method. Methods.

Disrupted Slit-Robo signalling results in membranous ventricular septum defects and bicuspid aortic valves. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The mesenchymal cushions lining the early embryonic heart undergo complex remodelling to form the membranous ventricular septum as well as the atrioventricular and semilunar valves in later life.

Transfemoral Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TF‐TAVI) for Patients With Left Ventricular Assist Device (LVAD) and Aortic Regurgitation

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aortic regurgitation (AR) develops in up to 25%−30% of patients with left ventricular assist device (LVAD). Treatment remains challenging since surgery confers significant peri‐operative risk and the lack of valvular calcification renders transfemoral transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TF‐TAVI) with non‐dedicated devices technically ...

Bicuspid aortic valve disease

open access: yesSA Heart, 2017
The prevalence of bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) disease is 0.5 - 2% of the population with a 3:1 male predominance. The genetic basis remains unknown although 9% of families have more than one affected individual. Life expectancy in patients with BAV is similar to the general population with a 10-year survival of over 95%. Adverse outcomes are most often

Recurrent infective endocarditis involving bicuspid aortic valve presenting with a rare complication: The deadly kiss

open access: yesJournal of the Indian Academy of Echocardiography & Cardiovascular Imaging, 2018
Bicuspid aortic valve, the most common congenital cardiac lesion, is frequently associated with infective endocarditis (IE), and this combination is notoriously associated with increased prevalence of periannular complications.

Long-Term Risk Factors for Dilatation of the Proximal Aorta in a Large Cohort of Children With Bicuspid Aortic Valve

open access: yesCirculation Cardiovascular Imaging, 2020
Supplemental Digital Content is available in the text. Background: Patients with bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) have a higher risk of developing aortic valve dysfunction and progressive proximal aorta dilatation, which can lead to aortic dissection. To this

Tricuspidisation of the aortic valve with creation of a crown-like annulus is able to restore a normal valve function in bicuspid aortic valves [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Objective: To evaluate the early results of a new method to repair malfunctioning bicuspid aortic valves by creating a tricuspid valve with a crown-like (i.e. anatomic) annulus.

Bicuspid Aortic Valve Stenosis and the Effect of Vitamin K2 on Calcification Using F-Sodium Fluoride Positron Emission Tomography/Magnetic Resonance:The BASIK2 Rationale and Trial Design [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
BASIK2 is a prospective, double-blind, randomized placebo-controlled trial investigating the effect of vitamin K2 (menaquinone-7;MK7) on imaging measurements of calcification in the bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) and calcific aortic valve stenosis (CAVS ...

Interventional therapies for chronic heart failure: An overview of recent developments

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1081-1094, April 2025.
Abstract Heart failure (HF), the final manifestation of most cardiovascular diseases, has become a major global health concern, affecting millions of individuals. Despite basic drug treatments, patients present with high morbidity and mortality rates. However, recent advancements in interventional therapy have shown promising results in improving the ...

Relation of Bicuspid Aortic Valve Morphology to the Dilatation Pattern of the Proximal Aorta: Focus on the Transvalvular Flow

open access: yesCardiology Research and Practice, 2012
Whether the dilatation of proximal aorta in patients with bicuspid aortic valve is secondary to hemodynamic effects related to the abnormal aortic valve or a primary manifestation of the genetic disorder remains controversial.
