Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is a major risk factor for the progression of aortic dilation (AD) because of the induced abnormal blood flow environment in aorta. The differences in the development of AD induced by BAV phenotypes remains unclear. Therefore, the objective of this study was to assess the potential locations of AD induced by different phenotypes of BAV. The different...
