Bicuspid aortic cusp fusion morphology alters aortic three-dimensional outflow patterns, wall shear stress, and expression of aortopathy
Background—Aortic 3-dimensional blood flow was analyzed to investigate altered
ascending aorta (AAo) hemodynamics in bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) patients and its …
