Bicuspid aortic valve [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2017
Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) has a prevalence of 0.5–1.39% in the general population. The prevalence of BAV in aortic dissection is 3.5–11.8%. Unfortunately, the incidence of aortic dissection in BAV remains unknown. The etiology of BAV is polygenetic, where environmental factors and unknown genetic factors seem to interact to cause BAV.

AbstractBackgroundBicuspid aortic valve is the most common CHD. Its association with early valvular dysfunction, endocarditis, thoracic aorta dilatation, and aortic dissection is well established.ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to assess the incidence and predictors of cardiac events in adults with bicuspid aortic valve.MethodsWe carried out a ...

Bicuspid aortic valve disease [PDF]

open access: yesCanadian Medical Association Journal, 2013
Bicuspid aortic valves are present in 1%–2% of the population, with men being 3 times more commonly affected than women. This disease is more than just anatomic variation and may be associated with other heart and aorta abnormalities as a result of molecular and connective tissue derangements.[1][

Bicuspid Aortic Valve Disease [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the American College of Cardiology, 2010
Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) disease is the most common congenital cardiac defect. While the BAV can be found in isolation, it is often associated with other congenital cardiac lesions. The most frequent associated finding is dilation of the proximal ascending aorta secondary to abnormalities of the aortic media.

Bicuspid aortic valve associated with aortic thrombotic occlusion

open access: yesThe Egyptian Journal of Internal Medicine, 2016
The bicuspid aortic valve is associated with disorders of the aortic wall, including coarctation of the aorta and aortic dissection. The histologic abnormality underlying aortic complications in bicuspid aortic valve is cystic medial necrosis.

Evolution of Precision Medicine and Surgical Strategies for Bicuspid Aortic Valve-Associated Aortopathy

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2017
Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is a common congenital cardiac malformation affecting 1–2% of people. BAV results from fusion of two adjacent aortic valve cusps, and is associated with dilatation of the aorta, known as bicuspid valve associated aortopathy ...
