Heartbeat: phenotypic heterogeneity of bicuspid aortic valve disease [PDF]
Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) disease is common, affecting 1%–2% of the entire population, with nearly all BAV patients eventually requiring aortic valve replacement, often with concurrent aortic surgery for dilation of the sinuses or ascending aorta. Although echocardiography allows easy diagnosis of the presence of BAV disease early in life, we are ...

Evolving treatment options for valve and aortic disease with bicuspid aortic valve [PDF]
Treatment decisions for patients with bicuspid aortic valves (BAVs) are unique for two principal reasons: (I) aortopathy with dilation of the proximal aorta is seen about 50% of cases, and frequently requires a combined repair; (II) patients are significantly younger than those undergoing treatment for acquired aortic valve disease, making the ...

ABSTRACT The rare X‐linked female‐restricted Hardikar syndrome (HDKR, OMIM # 301068) is characterized by multiple congenital anomalies including orofacial clefts, gastrointestinal, genitourinary, and cardiac anomalies, but cognitive and neurobehavioral development is rarely impaired.

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).
