Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm

Characterizing Aortic Smooth Muscle Cell Phenotype in the Setting of Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm

INTRODUCTION Bicuspid aortic valve disease (BAV) is the most common congenital cardiac malformation occurring in 1-2% of the general population [1] [2]. Normally, the aortic valve is separated into 3 valves. However, BAV involves fusing of the valvular leaflets during development, resulting in a 2-valve structure instead of the normal 3-valve structure. BAV predisposes patients to a thoracic ao...
