The bicuspid aortic valve affects 1 to 2% of the population and may be complicated by aortic stenosis or aortic insufficiency and infective endocarditis. The bicuspid aortic valve is associated with abnormalities of the aortic wall such as coarctation of the aorta, aortic dissection, and aortic aneurysm.

An aortic valve typically consists of three valve leaflets, named after their orientation relative to the left and right coronary artery. In 0.5–2 % of the general population, the aortic valve comprises only two leaflets, which is termed a bicuspid aortic valve (BAV).

Cardiovascular Pathology, 2002
We report an unusual case of bicuspid aortic valve in a 67-year-old man who had aortic valve replacement for combined severe aortic stenosis with moderate aortic regurgitation. Both preoperative echocardiography and angiocardiography failed to recognize the bicuspid nature of the aortic valve, which was discovered only at surgical pathology examination.

Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is the most common congenital heart disease, whose natural history is characterized by the incidence of clinically relevant valvular (stenosis, regurgitation, endocarditis) and/or vascular complications regarding the thoracic aorta (dilation, aneurysm, dissection) and, rarely, intracranial and epiaortic arteries.

Preservation of the Bicuspid Aortic Valve
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2007Bicuspid anatomy of the aortic valve is a common reason for aortic regurgitation and is associated with aortic dilatation in more than 50% of patients. We have observed different patterns of aortic dilatation and used different approaches preserving the valve.Between October 1995 and February 2006, a regurgitant bicuspid valve was repaired in 173 ...

MicroRNAs fingerprint of bicuspid aortic valve
Journal of Molecular and Cellular Cardiology, 2019Aortic valve tissue is largely exposed to high blood flow. Cells belonging to aortic valve tissues are able to detect and respond to flow conditions changes. Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) presents altered morphology, with only two abnormal cusps instead of three.

The bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is the most common congenital cardiac malformation. Despite being a seemingly simple and harmless anatomic variation, BAV is said to cause more morbidity than any other congenital cardiac defect [52]. BAV may lead to aortic valve stenosis (AS) or regurgitation (AR), endocarditis, an ascending aortic aneurysm, and/or ...

Bicuspid aortic valve in competitive athletes
British Journal of Sports Medicine, 2007Aim:Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is a common congenital cardiac condition. The presence of BAV in non-elite athletes has been poorly investigated; it is usually asymptomatic until valvular stenosis, regurgitation or other vascular alterations are evident.Design:Over a three-year period, 2273 competitive athletes were consecutively investigated with ...
