None for other authorsBackgroundBicuspid aortic valve (BAV) prevalence of 0.5-2%1
Associated with earlier and more frequent development of:2Aortic stenosis (AS)Aortic regurgitation (AR)Thoracic aortic aneurysm
Aortic dilatation most common vascular abnormality in BAV3
Pathophysiology of BAV aortopathy still not well understoodCongenital versus acquired?

Aortic root: AR severity
Gender-stratified analyses
AS: Significant difference in AAoD between No AS vs. AS only in women (p=0.03)
AR: No significant differences with or without AR in men or women
AS/AR: No significant differences with or without AS/AR in men or womenDiscussion15Present study findings:
Significant association between ascending aortic dimensions and presence of AV dysfunction in BAV patients
Stratified by segment, aortic root dilatation strongly associated with AR
No significant association between maximal AAoD and presence or severity of AS, except in womenGREEN: No AFYELLOW: TrAFRED: Not treated AF
Keep consistent throughout the presentationDiscussion16Previous findings on BAV-associated aortic dilatation and AV dysfunction have varied
Most studies have used echo as imaging modality of referenceAssociative findings
Non-associative findings
GREEN: No AFYELLOW: TrAFRED: Not treated AF
Keep consistent throughout the presentationDiscussion (contd)17Recent studies using CMR as imaging modality of reference
CMR provides accurate and detailed imaging of BAV and aorta, especially when echo is indeterminate (Malaisrie et al., 2012)
Recent 4-D MRI study findingsAltered wall shear stress (WSS) is exerted on ascending aorta and influenced by different BAV fusion patterns (Barker et al., 2012)Altered hemodynamics in ascending aorta associated with expression of BAV aortopathy (Mahadevia et al., 2014)
GREEN: No AFYELLOW: TrAFRED: Not treated AF

Study Limitations19Single tertiary referral centerImaging guideline changes over 10-year study period(e.g. timing of first CMR, extent of clinical data collected)Reliance on CMR without surgical and pathological ID of BAVRetrospective study designreason for initial presentation for medical caretime between initial BAV dx and referral for CMRIntra- and inter-observer variability in imaging evaluationsNon-standardized imaging equipment and techniquesGREEN: No AFYELLOW: TrAFRED: Not treated AF
Keep consistent throughout the presentationConclusionsAortic dilatation is associated with presence of AV dysfunction in BAV patients
Presence and severity of AR is associated with aortic root diameters
Presence of AS is associated with aortic dilatation in women only
Hemodynamically-significant valve dysfunction contributes to progression of aortic dilatation in BAV patients
