[PMID: 36035900 PMCID: PMC9411999 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2022.922353] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/17/2022] [Accepted: 07/25/2022] [Indexed: 11/27/2022] Open
Abstract
Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV), which affects up to 2% of the general population, results from the abnormal fusion of the cusps of the aortic valve. Patients with BAV are at a higher risk for developing aortic dilatation, a condition known as bicuspid aortopathy, which is associated with potentially life-threatening sequelae such as aortic dissection and aortic rupture. Although BAV biomechanics have been shown to contribute to aortopathy, their precise impact is yet to be delineated. Herein, we present the latest literature related to BAV biomechanics. We present the most recent definitions and classifications for BAV. We also summarize the current evidence pertaining to the mechanisms that drive bicuspid aortopathy. We highlight how aberrant flow patterns can contribute to the development of aortic dilatation. Finally, we discuss the role cardiac magnetic resonance imaging can have in assessing and managing patient with BAV and bicuspid aortopathy.

[PMID: 35187607 DOI: 10.1007/s00246-022-02843-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/29/2021] [Accepted: 02/03/2022] [Indexed: 11/26/2022]
Abstract
Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is a common congenital heart defect associated with coronary artery (CA) variants, including higher incidence of left CA dominance and shorter left main CA length. We observed by transthoracic echocardiography that left and right CA origins appear closer together in pediatric patients with right-left fusion (R/L) BAV compared to patients with trileaflet aortic valves. We sought to objectively confirm this observation. A retrospective review of pediatric echocardiograms with R/L BAV at a single institution (12/2010-11/2018) was performed. The 'coronary angle' was defined as the angle between the left and right coronary artery origins in the parasternal short axis view relative to the center of the aortic valve orifice. Values were compared to age-matched controls. Patients with inadequate images, anomalous coronary origins, or predefined significant congenital heart defects were excluded. We compared 191 R/L BAV patients (64% male) to 136 controls (57% male). Coronary angle was significantly more acute in R/L BAV than in controls (117.9° ± 16.7° vs 139.0° ± 10.1°, p < 0.0001). This was independent of age and gender. The difference persisted when BAV patients with abnormal aortic annulus/root diameters were removed from analysis (119.5° ± 15.1° vs 139.0° ± 10.1°, p < 0.0001). CA origins are closer together in R/L BAV independent of age, gender, or annulus/root size. This new anatomical description may aid in the diagnosis of subtle ('forme fruste') R/L BAV, assist in interventional planning, and improve understanding of the relationship between BAV and CA development.

Aortic Root Anatomy Is Related to the Bicuspid Aortic Valve Phenotype. J Am Soc Echocardiogr 2021; 35:278-286. [PMID: 34861352 DOI: 10.1016/j.echo.2021.11.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/15/2020] [Revised: 11/24/2021] [Accepted: 11/24/2021] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is associated with an asymmetric (not circular) aortic root, resulting in variability in the aortic root diameter measurements obtained using different techniques. The objective of this study was to describe aortic root asymmetry, including its orientation in the thorax, in relation to the various phenotypes of BAV and its impact on aortic root diameter measurements obtained using transthoracic echocardiography. METHODS Aortic root asymmetry, orientation of the largest root diameter, and orientation of the valve opening were studied using computed tomographic scans of patients with BAV without significant aortic valve dysfunction referred for evaluation of a thoracic aortic aneurysm. Eighty-five patients with BAV were evaluated; BAV with fusion of the left and the right coronary cusps (L-R BAV), with or without raphe (n = 63), was compared with BAV with fusion of the right coronary and noncoronary cusps (N-R BAV), with or without raphe (n = 22). RESULTS Asymmetry of the aortic root and its orientation in the thorax can be predicted from BAV phenotype: orientation of the valve opening differed from orientation of the largest root diameter by nearly 75° in both groups. The angle of the largest root diameter with the reference sagittal plane was 64.3° in the L-R BAV group versus 143.1° in the N-R BAV group (P < .0001). Therefore, using the parasternal long-axis view on transthoracic echocardiography, in N-R BAV, the ultrasound beam is roughly parallel to the valve opening orientation and almost orthogonal to the maximum diameter of the root. On the contrary, in L-R BAV, the ultrasound beam is roughly perpendicular to the valve opening orientation and almost parallel to the maximum diameter of the root. Consequently, the parasternal long-axis view on transthoracic echocardiography significantly underestimates maximal aortic root diameter in N-R BAV and modestly underestimates root diameter in L-R BAV (-6.1 ± 0.96 vs -2.3 ± 0.47 mm, P = .0008). CONCLUSIONS Aortic root morphology in patients with BAV can be predicted by BAV phenotype: the largest root diameter is roughly perpendicular to the orientation of the valve opening. Therefore, echocardiographic measurements according to present recommendations (parasternal long-axis view) underestimate maximal diameter in patients with N-R BAV.

Abstract
This International Consensus Classification and Nomenclature for the congenital bicuspid aortic valve condition recognizes 3 types of bicuspid valves: 1. The fused type (right-left cusp fusion, right-non-coronary cusp fusion and left-non-coronary cusp fusion phenotypes); 2. The 2-sinus type (latero-lateral and antero-posterior phenotypes); and 3. The partial-fusion (forme fruste) type. The presence of raphe and the symmetry of the fused type phenotypes are critical aspects to describe. The International Consensus also recognizes 3 types of bicuspid valve-associated aortopathy: 1. The ascending phenotype; 2. The root phenotype; and 3. Extended phenotypes. © 2021 Jointly between the RSNA, the European Association for Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, The Society of Thoracic Surgeons, and the American Association for Thoracic Surgery.

Abstract
This International Consensus Classification and Nomenclature for the congenital bicuspid aortic valve condition recognizes 3 types of bicuspid valves: 1. The fused type (right-left cusp fusion, right-non-coronary cusp fusion and left-non-coronary cusp fusion phenotypes); 2. The 2-sinus type (latero-lateral and antero-posterior phenotypes); and 3. The partial-fusion (forme fruste) type. The presence of raphe and the symmetry of the fused type phenotypes are critical aspects to describe. The International Consensus also recognizes 3 types of bicuspid valve-associated aortopathy: 1. The ascending phenotype; 2. The root phenotype; and 3. Extended phenotypes.

Abstract
This International evidence-based nomenclature and classification consensus on the congenital bicuspid aortic valve and its aortopathy recognizes 3 types of bicuspid aortic valve: 1. Fused type, with 3 phenotypes: right-left cusp fusion, right-non cusp fusion and left-non cusp fusion; 2. 2-sinus type with 2 phenotypes: Latero-lateral and antero-posterior; and 3. Partial-fusion or forme fruste. This consensus recognizes 3 bicuspid-aortopathy types: 1. Ascending phenotype; root phenotype; and 3. extended phenotypes.
