The most common congenital heart disease in the general population is the bicuspid aortic valve. Far from being just a harmless valve malformation, it is a complex and heterogeneous disease. It is often identified as an incidental finding in healthy people. However, in a high percentage of patients it leads throughout their life towards valvular (s...

Finally, and infrequently, type 2 has two raphes, present in practically all cases between the left and right leaflets (L-R) and between the right and non-coronary leaflets (R-N) (Fig. ...

We hereby present a case of congenitally corrected transposition of great arteries association of bicuspid aortic valve morphology and anomalous separate origin of the right ventricular branch of the right coronary artery. We aim to highlight the role of computed tomography angiography in identifying these rare associations.

Background The functional implications of left ventricular (LV) morphological characterization in congenital heart disease (CHD) are not widely explored. This study qualitatively and quantitatively assessed LV shape associations with a) LV function and b) thoracic aortic morphology in patients with aortic coarctation (CoA) with/without bicuspid aor...

We reported an exceedingly rare adult case of intracardiac teratoma with a bicuspid aortic valve. A small mass was discovered in the right ventricle of a 37‐year‐old man by accident after he was referred to our hospital due to chronic chest distress and aggravated palpitation. We performed a surgical exploration with excision of the lesion after a...

Whilst knowledge regarding the pathophysiology of congenital heart disease (CHDs) has advanced greatly in recent years, the underlying developmental processes affecting the cardiac outflow tract (OFT) such as bicuspid aortic valve, tetralogy of Fallot and transposition of the great arteries remain poorly understood. Common among CHDs affecting the...

Hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) is a genetically complex disorder. Whole genome sequencing enables comprehensive scrutiny of single nucleotide variants and small insertions/deletions, within both coding and regulatory regions of the genome, revolutionizing susceptibility-gene discovery research. Because millions of rare variants comprise an...
