Relationship between indexed aortic area and aortic diameter in bicuspid aortic valve aortopathy: A retrospective cohort study

BACKGROUND: Aortic dissection is a life-threatening complication of bicuspid aortic valve (BAV)-associated aortopathy. In these populations, whilst prophylactic replacement of proximal thoracic aortic aneurysms (TAAs) is generally recommended at threshold diameters ≥5.5 cm, dissection may occur in s...
