Clinical Outcomes in Patients With Bicuspid Aortic Valves and Ascending Aorta ≥50 mm Under Surveillance.

Background: Clinical outcomes of bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) patients with ascending aortic diameters ≥50 mm who are under surveillance are poorly defined.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to assess clinical outcomes in BAV patients with ascending aorta ≥50 mm.

Methods: Multicenter retrospective cohort study of BAV adults with ascending aorta diameters ≥50 mm by transthoracic echocardiography (TTE).
