The Bicuspid Aortic Valve

Current Problems in Cardiology, 2005
The bicuspid aortic valve affects 1 to 2% of the population and may be complicated by aortic stenosis or aortic insufficiency and infective endocarditis. The bicuspid aortic valve is associated with abnormalities of the aortic wall such as coarctation of the aorta, aortic dissection, and aortic aneurysm.

Aortic Dilatation with Bicuspid Aortic Valve

New England Journal of Medicine, 2014
To the Editor: In their review on thoracic aortic dilatation associated with bicuspid aortic valve, Verma and Siu (May 15 issue)1 do not mention the increased prevalence of bicuspid aortic valve and its strong association with aortic dilatation and dissection in women with Turner's syndrome.2 This sex-chromosome disorder, which is caused by the loss of

Clefted bicuspid aortic valve

Cardiovascular Pathology, 2002
We report an unusual case of bicuspid aortic valve in a 67-year-old man who had aortic valve replacement for combined severe aortic stenosis with moderate aortic regurgitation. Both preoperative echocardiography and angiocardiography failed to recognize the bicuspid nature of the aortic valve, which was discovered only at surgical pathology examination.

Preservation of the Bicuspid Aortic Valve

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2007
Bicuspid anatomy of the aortic valve is a common reason for aortic regurgitation and is associated with aortic dilatation in more than 50% of patients. We have observed different patterns of aortic dilatation and used different approaches preserving the valve.Between October 1995 and February 2006, a regurgitant bicuspid valve was repaired in 173 ...

The bicuspid aortic valve

2010
The bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is the most common congenital cardiac malformation. Despite being a seemingly simple and harmless anatomic variation, BAV is said to cause more morbidity than any other congenital cardiac defect [52]. BAV may lead to aortic valve stenosis (AS) or regurgitation (AR), endocarditis, an ascending aortic aneurysm, and/or ...

Aortic Dilatation in Patients with Bicuspid Aortic Valve

New England Journal of Medicine, 2014
Bicuspid aortic valve is the most common congenital heart defect in adults. Dilatation of the proximal aorta, or bicuspid aortopathy, is present in approximately half these patients and can lead to complications, including aneurysm formation and aortic dissection.

Bicuspid Aortic Valve

2019
Although valve repair for aortic regurgitation (AR) has gained attention and the application of individual procedures is becoming standardized according to the pathophysiology of regurgitation, repair techniques for the bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) have not yet been standardized. The main reason for this is the diversity of BAV phenotypes.

Bicuspid Aortic Valve

2015
The prevalence of a congenital bicuspid valve (BAV), 1–2 % of the general population, is high enough to warrant attention during auscultation of the heart. BAV occurs as a result of the congenital fusion of the coronary cusps, with the right and left coronary cusps most commonly fused. BAV is most commonly asymptomatic.
