Population-based treated prevalence, risk factors, and outcomes of bicuspid aortic valve in a pediatric Medicaid cohort

open access: yesAnnals of Pediatric Cardiology, 2018
Background: We investigated the treated prevalence of bicuspid aortic valve in a pediatric population with congenital heart disease and its incident complications. Materials and Methods: A 15-year retrospective data set was analyzed.

Including Aortic Valve Morphology in Computational Fluid Dynamics Simulations: Initial Findings and Application to Aortic Coarctation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations quantifying thoracic aortic flow patterns have not included disturbances from the aortic valve (AoV). 80% of patients with aortic coarctation (CoA) have a bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) which may cause adverse ...

Annular and supra-annular structure assessments for transcatheter aortic valve replacement in patients with bicuspid aortic stenosis

open access: yesReviews in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021
The clinical use indications for transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) for the treatment of severe symptomatic aortic stenosis (AS) have expanded from patients at high surgical risk to those at low risk based on the results of multiple large ...

Valve disease and aortopathy associations of bicuspid aortic valve phenotypes differ between men and women

open access: yesOpen Heart, 2021
Objective Determine whether associations between bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) phenotypes, valve disease and aortopathy differ between sexes. Methods 1045 patients with BAV (76.0% men, n=794) from two surgical centres were included in this cross-sectional ...

Abnormal Haemodynamic Flow Patterns in Bicuspid Pulmonary Valve Disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2017
Abnormal flow patterns in the aortas of those with bicuspid aortic valves (BAVs) are increasingly recognized as important in the pathogenesis of aortic dilatation but pulmonary flow patterns in bicuspid pulmonary valves have not been studied.

Contribution of Oxidative Stress (OS) in Calcific Aortic Valve Disease (CAVD): From Pathophysiology to Therapeutic Targets

open access: yesCells, 2022
Calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD) is a major cause of cardiovascular mortality and morbidity, with increased prevalence and incidence. The underlying mechanisms behind CAVD are complex, and are mainly illustrated by inflammation, mechanical stress ...

Triple valve infective endocarditis - a late diagnosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Behcet\u27s disease is a systemic vasculitis of unknown aetiology with cardiac involvement as well as damage to other organs. Whether the sterile valvular inflammation which occurs in this autoimmune disease predisposes to bacterial adhesion and ...

A retrospective analysis of mitral valve pathology in the setting of bicuspid aortic valves

open access: yesEcho 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

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

open access: yes, 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.
