Abstract

To determine whether aortic root dilation associated with a bicuspid aortic valve occurs independently of valvular hemodynamic abnormality, aortic root dimensions were measured by two-dimensional echocardiography in 83 adults with a functionally normal (n = 19), mildly regurgitant (n = 26), severely regurgitant (n = 27) or stenotic (n = 11) bicuspid aortic valve and compared with findings in normal subjects matched for age and gender. Aortic root measurements were made at four levels: anulus, sinuses of Valsalva, supraaortic ridge and proximal ascending aorta. Seventy-one percent of patients with a bicuspid aortic valve were men. When compared with control subjects, all hemodynamic subgroups showed a significantly larger aortic root size at three levels: sinuses of Valsalva, supraaortic ridge and proximal ascending aorta (p less than 0.05 to p less than 0.001). The prevalence of aortic root enlargement among all hemodynamic subgroups ranged from 9% to 59% at the level of the anulus, 36% to 78% at the sinuses, 47% to 79% at the supraaortic ridge and 50% to 64% in the ascending aorta. Thus, there is a high prevalence of aortic root enlargement in patients with a bicuspid aortic valve that occurs irrespective of altered hemodynamics or age. These findings support the hypothesis that bicuspid aortic valve and aortic root dilation may reflect a common developmental defect.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
