Background: Bicuspid aortic valves are associated with aortic dilation and dissection. There is a paucity of prospective studies evaluating changes in aortic size over time in adult subjects with bicuspid aortic valves.

The anatomopathology of bicuspid aortic valve
The bicuspid aortic valve is a common congenital heart disease characterised by inequality of cusp size, a central raphe, and smooth cusp margins even in diseased valves.

Aortic assessment of bicuspid aortic valve patients and their first-degree relatives
Background Bicuspid aortic valve patients have an increased risk of aortic dilatation. A deficit of nitric oxide synthase has been proposed as the causative factor.

Should the dilated ascending aorta be repaired at the time of bicuspid aortic valve replacement?
OBJECTIVES Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is the most common congenital valvular abnormality and frequently presents with accelerated calcific aortic valve disease, requiring aortic valve replacement (AVR) and thoracic aortic aneurysm and dissection ...

Atrioventricular block as the initial presentation of calcified bicuspid aortic valve
BACKGROUND: Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is one of the most common and important congenital heart disorders in adults. If a patient with congenital disorders is not diagnosed early, the patient’s disease may progress to a severe condition and thus ...
