Pulmonary Valve Morphology in Patients with Bicuspid Aortic Valves [PDF]
The aortic and pulmonary valve share a common developmental origin from the embryonic arterial trunk. Bicuspid aortic valve is the most common congenital anomaly and can occur isolated as well as in association with other congenital heart disease (CHD). Data on pulmonary valve morphology in these cases are scarce.

ABSTRACT Valve‐in‐valve (ViV) Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has emerged as a valid treatment option in symptomatic patients with failed aortic bioprosthetic valves, most especially in those with intermediate, high or prohibitive risk of surgery. Due to the unique design of stentless bioprosthetic valves with absence of visible posts and

A novel source of arterial valve cells linked to bicuspid aortic valve without raphe in mice
Abnormalities of the arterial valve leaflets, predominantly bicuspid aortic valve, are the commonest congenital malformations. Although many studies have investigated the development of the arterial valves, it has been assumed that, as with the ...

Reconstruction of the Bicuspid Aortic Valve [PDF]
Abicuspid aortic valve (BAV) occurs in 2% of the population and is a common reason for significant aortic regurgitation, particularly in the third and fourth decades of life.1 In these young patients, the choice of valve substitute is difficult. With a mechanical valve, the linearized risk of thromboembolic complications and anticoagulation-related ...

The bicuspid aortic valve - studies on valve morphology and pathology in relation to ascending aortic dilatation and coronary artery disease [PDF]
The prevalence of bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is 1 - 2% and is thereby the most common cardiac malformation. BAV is highly associated with valvular dysfunction and aortic co nditions such as ascending aortic aneurysm and aortic ...

Interventional therapies for chronic heart failure: An overview of recent developments
Abstract Heart failure (HF), the final manifestation of most cardiovascular diseases, has become a major global health concern, affecting millions of individuals. Despite basic drug treatments, patients present with high morbidity and mortality rates. However, recent advancements in interventional therapy have shown promising results in improving the ...

Whether the dilatation of proximal aorta in patients with bicuspid aortic valve is secondary to hemodynamic effects related to the abnormal aortic valve or a primary manifestation of the genetic disorder remains controversial.

Trileaflet mitral valve associated with a bicuspid aortic valve [PDF]
The trileaflet mitral valve is a very rare congenital malformation with three equal size leaflets and three papillary muscles. In this article, we report the first case of trileaflet mitral valve associated with a bicuspid aortic valve in a patient referred for management of infective endocarditis. .

Increased calcification by erythrophagocytosis in aortic valvular interstitial cells
Abstract Background Calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD) progresses over time to severe aortic stenosis and eventually heart failure. Recent evidence indicates that intraleaflet haemorrhage (ILH) strongly promotes CAVD progression. However, it remains poorly understood how it mechanistically contributes to valvular calcification.

Transthoracic 3D echocardiographic left heart chamber quantification in patients with bicuspid aortic valve disease [PDF]
Integration of volumetric heart chamber quantification by 3D echocardiography into clinical practice has been hampered by several factors which a new fully automated algorithm (Left Heart Model, (LHM)) may help overcome.
