Candidate gene resequencing in a large bicuspid aortic valve-associated thoracic aortic aneurysm cohort: SMAD6 as an important contributor [PDF]
Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is the most common congenital heart defect. Although many BAV patients remain asymptomatic, at least 20% develop thoracic aortic aneurysm (TAA).

Aortic valve and aortic arch pathology after coarctation repair [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the incidence of clinical problems related to a bicuspid valve (aortic stenosis and regurgitation) and the incidence of ascending aorta and aortic arch pathology in combination with coarctation repair.

ABSTRACT Turner Syndrome (TS) is a sex chromosomal disorder associated with karyotype heterogeneity. Although TS can be associated with severe prenatal findings, most often linked to the 45, X karyotype, the majority of TS fetuses have no overt phenotype, resulting in delayed diagnosis and management.

The Bicuspid Aortic Valve [PDF]
Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) represents the most common cardiac congenital malformation in the adult age, with strong male predominance. It may occur in isolation, or in association with other congenital heart diseases. The BAV is seen in 1% to 2% of the population and may be complicated by aortic stenosis or aortic insufficiency and infective ...

Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) disease is the most common congenital cardiac defect, with a prevalence estimated between 0.5% and 2% [(1,2)][1]. The earliest description of BAV is attributed to Leonardo da Vinci, who sketched the bicuspid variant of the aortic valve over 400 years ago [(3)][2].

Infective endocarditis (IE) commonly complicates bicuspid aortic valve. We report an uncommon case of bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) IE with aortic root abscess (ARA), presenting initially with abdominal pain due to splenic infarcts, delaying prompt ...
