A retrospective analysis of mitral valve pathology in the setting of bicuspid aortic valves
Echo Research and Practice, 2017 The therapeutic implications of bicuspid aortic valve associations have come under scrutiny in the transcatheter aortic valve implantation era. We evaluate the spectrum of mitral valve disease in patients with bicuspid aortic valves to determine the need

Bicuspid aortic valve is heritable
Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2004 Previous studies have established familial clustering of bicuspid aortic valve (BAV), presumably indicating genetic inheritance. Our objective was to statistically test whether the segregation pattern of BAV is consistent with genetic inheritance and to obtain an estimate of the size of the genetic effect (heritability).Bicuspid aortic valve occurs in ...
