The provided abstract contains only background information and does not report any quantitative results regarding transcatheter aortic valve implantation in patients with bicuspid aortic valves.
Why the study?
What are the clinical and anatomical predictors of accelerated post-TAVI ascending aorta remodeling in patients with bicuspid aortic valves?

Identifying predictors of accelerated post-TAVI aortic growth in bicuspid aortic valve patients is needed to inform surveillance intervals and risk stratification.
Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is the most common congenital cardiac anomaly and associated with progressive ascending aortic (AA) dilatation. Current guidelines provide limited specific recommendations for post-transcatheter valve implantation (TAVI) aortic surveillance in BAV. Identifying clinical and anatomical predictors of accelerated post-TAVI aortic growth is essential to inform surveillance intervals and risk stratification in this complex cohort.
