  • Title: Pseudocoarctation of the aortic arch associated with bicuspid aortic valve lesion: is it a surgical entity?
    Author: Angelini GD, Kulatilake EN, Hayward M, Ruttley MS.
    Journal: Thorac Cardiovasc Surg; 1985 Feb; 33(1):36-7. PubMed ID: 2579461.
    Abstract:
    Three patients with bicuspid aortic valve lesion associated with pseudocoarctation of the aortic arch are presented. At operation, 2 had a bicuspid calcified stenotic aortic valve, and one a bicuspid non-calcified incompetent aortic valve. All required replacement of the diseased aortic valve. The pseudocoarctation was not corrected because it caused no hemodynamic abnormality.
