Bicuspid Aortic Valve and Pregnancy

open access: yesUkrainian Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery, 2021
Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is the most common congenital heart disease. Severe stenosis of BAV and its combination with aortic pathology can cause significant adverse maternal and perinatal consequences. The optimal strategy for medical care of pregnant women with BAV has not been fully elucidated and requires further research. This paper presents 7.5

Valve-preserving surgery on the bicuspid aortic valve [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 2013
Valve repair has emerged as an important intervention for the management of bicuspid aortic valve disease. This systematic review aims to assess the safety, efficacy and durability of bicuspid aortic valve repair. Initial searches yielded 682 abstracts, reduced by de-duplication to 370, of which 56 full papers were accessed and 30 met the inclusion ...

Non‐Invasive Prenatal Testing by Cell‐Free DNA (cfNIPT) for Detecting Turner Syndrome With Mosaicism and Structural Variants—Prenatal Findings and Postnatal Outcomes

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Turner Syndrome (TS) is a sex chromosomal disorder associated with karyotype heterogeneity. Although TS can be associated with severe prenatal findings, most often linked to the 45, X karyotype, the majority of TS fetuses have no overt phenotype, resulting in delayed diagnosis and management.

Bicuspid aortic valve infective endocarditis and aortic root abscess presenting initially as splenic infarctions

open access: yesProceedings of Singapore Healthcare, 2022
Infective endocarditis (IE) commonly complicates bicuspid aortic valve. We report an uncommon case of bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) IE with aortic root abscess (ARA), presenting initially with abdominal pain due to splenic infarcts, delaying prompt ...
