Transcatheter vs surgical aortic valve replacement for bicuspid aortic valve disease
Abstract Background Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has emerged as an acceptable and often preferred alternative to surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) for patients with severe aortic stenosis. However, the mid‐ and long‐term efficacy of TAVR in patients with bicuspid aortic valves (BAVs) remains unclear.

Expert consensus recommendations on the cardiogenetic care for patients with thoracic aortic disease and their first-degree [PDF]
Background: Thoracic aortic aneurysm (TAA) is a potentially life-threatening disorder with a strong genetic component. The number of genes implicated in TAA has increased exponentially over the last decade.

Bicuspid Aortic Valve: An Unusual Cause of Aneurysm of Left Coronary Sinus of Valsalva
Bicuspid aortic valve is traditionally considered an innocuous congenital anomaly. Due to a better and widespread availability of non-invasive imaging techniques, it has come to the fore that 30% of these cases develop complications, viz., valve ...

Objective: To maximize successful repair of bicuspid aortic valves by adding figure-of-8 hitch-up stitches at commissures. Methods: From 2000 to 2022, bicuspid aortic valve repair was performed on 1112 patients at Cleveland Clinic, with 367 patients ...

Embryonic Development of the Bicuspid Aortic Valve
Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is the most common congenital valvular heart defect with an overall frequency of 0.5%–1.2%. BAVs result from abnormal aortic cusp formation during valvulogenesis, whereby adjacent cusps fuse into a single large cusp resulting in two, instead of the normal three, aortic cusps.

Aged Zebrafish as a Spontaneous Model of Cardiac Valvular Disease
Natural ageing in zebrafish results in spontaneous development of valvular degeneration in both the atrioventricular (AV) and bulboventricular (BV) valves. Aged zebrafish valves are larger and exhibit cystic regions, immune cell infiltration, early osteoblast differentiation and increased regurgitation.

Chylothorax after patent ductus arteriosus ligation in a dog with persistent left cranial vena cava
This report is the first to document chylothorax after patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) ligation in a dog with a persistent left cranial vena cava (PLCVC), highlighting potential complications arising from concurrent cardiovascular anomalies. A nine‐month‐old female desexed Pomeranian was referred for PDA. Echocardiography confirmed a left‐to‐right shunt

Atrioventricular canal defect and genetic syndromes: the unifying role of sonic hedgehog [PDF]
The atrioventricular canal defect (AVCD) is a congenital heart defect (CHD) frequently associated with extracardiac anomalies (75%). Previous observations from a personal series of patients with AVCD and "polydactyly syndromes" showed that the distinct ...

The bicuspid aortic valve is a common congenital cardiac anomaly, having an incidence in the general population of 0.9% to 2.0% and a frequency of 54% in all patients aged >15 years with valvular aortic stenosis. In most cases it remains undetected until infective endocarditis or calcification supervenes. The bicuspid aortic valve may function normally
