Three‐year clinical outcomes after transcatheter aortic valve implantation in patients with bicuspid aortic disease: Comparison between self‐expanding and balloon‐expandable valves

Catheterization and cardiovascular interventions
Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) stenosis is a complex anatomical scenario for transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). Favorable short‐term clinical outcomes have been reported with TAVI in this setting, but long‐term data are scarce.

Bicuspid Aortic Valve and Aortic Root Disease

Current Cardiology Reports, 2011
Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is the most common form of congenital heart disease, with frequent and premature occurrence of cardiac events, dominated by significant valvular dysfunction. BAV has a high prevalence of aortic wall abnormalities such as ascending aortic dilatation.

The significance of aortic valve calcification in patients with bicuspid aortic valve disease

The International Journal of Cardiovascular Imaging, 2015
Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is a common congenital heart disease. Our study was to analyze clinical features of BAV and evaluate whether aortic valve calcium score (AVCS) was a reliable marker for aortic stenosis (AS) in patients with BAV. 101 patients with BAV who both underwent echocardiology and cardiac computed tomography (CT) scan in our ...

Increased rotational flow in the proximal aortic arch is associated with its dilation in bicuspid aortic valve disease.

European Heart Journal-Cardiovascular Imaging, 2019
AIMS Aortic dilation in bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) might extend to the proximal arch. Arch flow dynamics and their relationship with this segment dilation are still unexplored.

The bicuspid aortic valve: Is it an immunological disease process?

Journal of Cardiac Surgery, 2019
Bicuspid aortic valves (BAVs) are the most common congenital cardiac condition and are characterized by a structural abnormality whereby the aortic valve is composed of two leaflets instead of being trileaflet. It is linked to an increased risk for a variety of complications of the aorta, many with an immunological pathogenesis.

Clinical and pathophysiological aspects of bicuspid aortic valve disease

Cardiology in the Young, 2018
AbstractA bicuspid aortic valve is not only a common congenital heart defect but also an enigmatic condition that can cause a large spectrum of diseases, such as aortic valve stenosis and severe heart failure in newborns whereas aortic dissection in adults. On the contrary, a bicuspid aortic valve can also occur with normal function throughout life and

Four-dimensional Virtual Catheter: Noninvasive Assessment of Intra-aortic Hemodynamics in Bicuspid Aortic Valve Disease.

Radiology, 2019
Background Four-dimensional (4D) flow MRI enables the evaluation of blood flow alterations in patients with congenital bicuspid aortic valve (BAV). However, current analysis methods are cumbersome and lack the use of the volumetric data from 4D MRI ...

Cardiac Transplantation in Adults With Aortic Valve Disease With Focus on the Bicuspid Aortic Valve

The American Journal of Cardiology, 2012
The frequency of congenitally bicuspid aortic valves in patients having cardiac transplantation (CT) is unknown. We reviewed 243 explanted hearts in patients having CT at Baylor University Medical Center, Dallas from June 1997 through November 2011 to determine the frequency of a bicuspid aortic valve in this population. Of the 243 explanted hearts, 7 (

Aortopathy in Bicuspid Aortic Valve Disease: Is It Really Congenital?

Radiology, 2010
and inferences should be drawn with caution. Substantial selection and observer bias, inadequate sample size, lack of repeatable disease defi nition, and questionable validity of the outcome assessment tool are the major factors hampering the study’s clinical implications.

The many faces of bicuspid aortic valve disease

Progress in Pediatric Cardiology, 2012
Abstract Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is one of the most common types of congenital heart disease. Not only does BAV lead to important valvular complications such as aortic stenosis, aortic regurgitation and infective endocarditis, but also BAV is associated with an underlying aortopathy.
