Characteristics and prognosis of isolated aortic valve infective endocarditis in patients with bicuspid aortic valves: a propensity matched study

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

Introduction Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is the most common congenital heart disease with an increased risk of infective endocarditis (IE). The aim of this study was to compare patients with tricuspid aortic valve (TAV) IE and BAV-IE in terms of characteristics, management and prognosis.

Basics of Echocardiography

All About Cardiovascular System and Disorders

Tracing in the lower part is tissue Doppler imaging from the medial mitral annulus. A good knowledge of the anatomy of the heart is needed for interpretation of images from each view. This becomes more difficult in complex congenital heart diseases where the cardiac chamber positions and size may vary.
