We report the case of a 44-year-old male patient with bicuspid aortic valve, presenting with hemoptysis. Catheter angiography revealed an abnormal communication between bronchial and pulmonary artery, which remained undetected on computed tomography ...

Fluid dynamics of aortic root dilation in Marfan syndrome
Aortic root dilation and propensity to dissection are typical manifestations of the Marfan Syndrome (MS), a genetic defect leading to the degeneration of the elastic fibres. Dilation affects the structure of the flow and, in turn, altered flow may play a

Bicuspid aortic valve is heritable
Previous studies have established familial clustering of bicuspid aortic valve (BAV), presumably indicating genetic inheritance. Our objective was to statistically test whether the segregation pattern of BAV is consistent with genetic inheritance and to obtain an estimate of the size of the genetic effect (heritability).Bicuspid aortic valve occurs in ...

NOTCH signalling is indispensable for tissue homeostasis and, consequently, corruption of its normal function promotes numerous diseases, including cancer. However, the development of targeted therapies has been hampered by inefficacy and overt toxicity. Here, we show that NOTCH receptor dimerization is necessary for receptor transactivation, which has

Background The role of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) in bicuspid aortic valve stenosis requires further evaluation, particularly as its use has become comparable to surgical aortic valve replacement. We sought to compare midterm outcomes

Giant Pulmonary Artery Aneurysm in Bicuspid Pulmonary Valve
Bicuspid pulmonary valve is a rare echocardiographic finding, particularly if not associated with other congenital heart diseases. We report the incidental case of a severe giant pulmonary arterial aneurysm associated to bicuspid pulmonary valve in an ...

ABSTRACT Introduction Slow pathway radiofrequency ablation is an effective treatment for atrioventricular nodal re‐entrant tachycardia (AVNRT) but has been reported in some series to result in late atrioventricular block. We examined our local experience with a retrospective review. Methods A retrospective review of all patients undergoing slow pathway

The influence of bicuspid aortic valves on the dynamic pressure distribution in the ascending aorta: a porcine ex vivo model † [PDF]
OBJECTIVES The aim of the study was to simulate the effect of different bicuspid aortic valve configurations on the dynamic pressure distribution in the ascending aorta. METHODS Aortic specimens were harvested from adult domestic pigs.
