Bicuspid aortic valve disease [PDF]

Canadian Medical Association Journal, 2013
Bicuspid aortic valves are present in 1%–2% of the population, with men being 3 times more commonly affected than women. This disease is more than just anatomic variation and may be associated with other heart and aorta abnormalities as a result of molecular and connective tissue derangements.[1][

Biological niches within human calcified aortic valves. Towards understanding of the pathological biomineralization process [PDF]

, 2015
Despite recent advances, mineralization site, its microarchitecture, and composition in calcific heart valve remain poorly understood. A multiscale investigation, using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and ...

Transcatheter Treatment of Bicuspid Aortic Valve Disease: Imaging and Interventional Considerations

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2018
Patients with bicuspid aortic valve disease have systematically been excluded from large randomized clinical trials investigating transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) due to their younger age, lower surgical risk and complex aortic anatomy. The

Early and midterm outcomes of transcatheter aortic valve replacement in patients with bicuspid aortic valves

Journal of cardiac surgery, 2018
Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) stenosis has been considered a relative contraindication to transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). We compared the outcomes of TAVR in patients with BAV stenosis versus patients with trileaflet aortic valve stenosis.

Bicuspid Aortic Valve [PDF]

, 2011
Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) disease is the most common congenital cardiovascular malformation with prevalence of 1-2% in the human population (Hoffman, 1990; Hoffman & Kaplan, 2002). Current clinical and scientific studies reveal that bicuspid aortic disease is not a simple valve condition.

Spontaneous Rupture of a Bicuspid Aortic Valve in a Middle-Aged Weightlifter

European Journal of Case Reports in Internal Medicine, 2021
We describe a 58-year-old Caucasian male weightlifter who presented with acute shortness of breath after finishing his extensive exercise routine. Acute aortic valve regurgitation, due to spontaneous rupture of a bicuspid aortic valve, was diagnosed ...

Aortic Coarctation: Recent Developments in Experimental and Computational Methods to Assess Treatments for this Simple Condition [PDF]

, 2010
Coarctation of the aorta (CoA) is often considered a relatively simple disease, but long-term outcomes suggest otherwise as life expectancies are decades less than in the average population and substantial morbidity often exists.

Bicuspid Aortic Valve Disease and Ascending Aortic Aneurysms: Gaps in Knowledge

Cardiology Research and Practice, 2012
The bicuspid aortic valve is the most common congenital cardiac anomaly in developed nations. The abnormal bicuspid morphology of the aortic valve results in valvular dysfunction and subsequent hemodynamic derangements. However, the clinical presentation

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
