Objectives This study attempted to evaluate the characteristics and prognostic value of
myocardial fibrosis (MF) in aortic insufficiency (AI) patients with bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) …

This study sought to evaluate the prognostic value of left ventricular (LV) fibrosis assessed
by late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) of the myocardium during cardiac magnetic …

Aims Myocardial fibrosis (MF) might represent a key player in pathophysiology of heart
failure in aortic stenosis (AS). We aimed to assess its impact on left ventricular (LV) …

Objective This study investigated the morphological and functional characteristics of the
aortic valve and the left ventricular (LV) systolic functional parameters and myocardial mass …

Patients with bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) and patients with Marfan syndrome (MFS) are more
prone to develop aortic dilation and dissection compared to persons with a tricuspid aortic …

The clinical and imaging differences between bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) and tricuspid
aortic valve (TAV) patients with medically managed asymptomatic moderate-to-severe aortic …

Aortic stenosis (AS) is the most common valvular disease in developed countries. Valvular
sclerosis is present in> 25% of individuals older than 65 years. The prevalence of AS …

Objectives To compare aortic size and stiffness parameters on MRI between bicuspid aortic
valve (BAV) and tricuspid aortic valve (TAV) patients with aortic stenosis (AS). Methods MRI …

Objectives This study sought to compare aortic stenosis (AS) progression rates, AS-related
cardiac damage (AS-CD) indicator incidence and determinants, and survival between …

Subclinical systolic and diastolic left ventricular (LV) dysfunction has been reported in
previous echocardiographic studies on congenital bicuspid aortic valve (BAV). Patients with …
