Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement for Bicuspid Aortic Valve
Abstract Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is being routinely done in various centres for aortic stenosis due to tricuspid aortic valves. The number of TAVR procedures are increasing, but the data on bicuspid aortic valves (BAV) is scanty.

The living aortic valve: From molecules to function. [PDF]
The aortic valve lies in a unique hemodynamic environment, one characterized by a range of stresses (shear stress, bending forces, loading forces and strain) that vary in intensity and direction throughout the cardiac cycle.

ABSTRACT Background Elliptical annular anatomy has been considered a risk factor for adverse outcomes after TAVI, particularly paravalvular leakage (PVL). Prosthesis oversizing is thought to improve sealing, but the interaction between annular shape and sizing strategy remains unclear.

Aortendilatation und Funktion des linken Ventrikels bei bikuspider Aortenklappe [PDF]
Einleitung: Die bikuspide Aortenklappe (BAK) ist mit einer Prävalenz von 0.5-2% der häufigste angeborene Herzfehler. Die Dilatation der Aorta ascendens ist eine häufige Begleiterkrankung der BAK, die im schlimmsten Fall zum plötzlichen Herztod bei ...

Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) disease is the most common congenital cardiovascular malformation with prevalence of 1-2% in the human population (Hoffman, 1990; Hoffman & Kaplan, 2002). Current clinical and scientific studies reveal that bicuspid aortic disease is not a simple valve condition.
