Anatomical characteristics of aortic valve diseases: Implications for transcatheter aortic valve replacement
2023, European Journal of Radiology OpenComparison of aortic root geometry with bicuspid versus tricuspid aortic valve: Real-time three-dimensional transesophageal echocardiographic study
2014, Journal of the American Society of EchocardiographyCitation Excerpt :Furthermore, 3D TEE is of paramount merit for 3D analysis of aortic annular motion because of good time resolution, because MDCT presents difficulty in the analysis of dynamic motion of aortic root geometry throughout the cardiac cycle due to its low time resolution. Previous studies showed that the diameters of the aortic root in long-axis views by TTE or 2D TEE in patients with BAV were larger than those in patients with TAV.14-16 Furthermore, a previous study using MDCT demonstrated that there was a relatively larger annular diameter (P = .07) and a similar long/short annular diameter ratio in BAV compared with TAV.17
Computer-aided design of the human aortic root
2014, Computers in Biology and MedicineCitation Excerpt :On the one hand, recent analysis of CT data by Tops et al. (2008) showed no significant differences between patients with and without severe stenosis [9]. On the other hand, the studies by Ben-Dor I et al. (2005) and Paul Stolzmann (2011), based on transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) and CT, respectively, showed statistical differences between patients with and without AS [19,20]. The data obtained from ECHO are consistent with previous findings.
Aortic root morphology in patients undergoing percutaneous aortic valve replacement: Evidence of aortic root remodeling
2009, Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular SurgeryCitation Excerpt :However, earlier data regarding changes in aortic root morphology in calcific AS are limited. In a study using transesophageal echocardiography, Ben-Dor and colleagues16 reported reduced diameters of the aortic sinus and sinotubular junction in 62 patients with degenerative tricuspid AS compared with controls. In comparison, in a retrospective study using both transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiography, Crawford and Roldan17 found a reduced aortic annulus size but an increased diameter of the sinotubular junction in 42 patients with AS compared with controls.
Management of the Ascending Aorta in Patients with Bicuspid Aortic Valve Disease
2008, Heart Lung and CirculationCitation Excerpt :In another echocardiography study, Ben-Dor et al. compared the ascending aorta of 88 patients with degenerative, rheumatic or bicuspid aortic stenosis to a group of control patients. Patients with BAV aortic stenosis had significantly larger ascending aortas than the other groups.45 In a large echocardiography-based series of 41,000 patients from the University of Pennsylvania (patients with aortic root pathology such as endocarditis and Marfan's syndrome were excluded), patients with BAV disease (118 after exclusions) were compared to the matched (for age and severity of the valve lesion) tricuspid valve controls.
