1.Introduction
The exact pathogenesis of the formation of bicuspid
aorticvalvesisnotyetfullyunderstood.Itisthoughtthereis
certainly a genetic component, especially given the associ-
ation of BAV with other congenital abnormalities such as
coarctation of the aorta. In summary however, the BAV is
formedbyfusionoftheaorticcuspsduringvalvulogenesis.
Thepulmonaryvalvecanalsobebicuspid,althoughthis
ismuchrarerandismostcommonlyassociatedwithcon-
genitalheartdiseasesuchasTetralogyofFallot.Therehave
beenlessthan10casesreportedintheliteratureofanisolated
bicuspidpulmonaryvalve[6].
Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is the commonest congenital
cardiacabnormalitywithanestimatedprevalenceof1-2%
[1].Itisalmost3timesmorecommoninmalesthanfemales
[2].AdversecardiovascularoutcomesinpatientswithBAV
are more common than previously thought [3], therefore

This paper will discuss our current knowledge of the
anatomy, pathophysiology, genetics, and clinical aspects of
BAV disease using echocardiographic literature. On
