Clinical Trial: Progression of Ascending Aorta Diameters in Bicuspid Aortic Valve After Transcatheter or Surgical Replacement.
Study Status: Completed
Recruit Status: RECRUITING
Condition: Bicuspid Aortic Valve
Study Type: OBSERVATIONAL
Official Title: Progression of the Ascending Aorta Diameter After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation and Surgical Aortic Valve Replacement in Patients With Bicuspid Aortic Valve.
Brief Summary:
The goal of this prospective, non-randomized, single-center, observational study is to assess whether there is a progressive dilation of ascending aorta after surgical or transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) in patients who underwent elective aortic valve replacement or TAVR for stenotic bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) at our institution from 2015 to June 2022.Participants will undergo both a CT and an echocardiographic assessment at least 90 days after surgery.
