  • Title: Bicuspid aortic valve with right-sided aortic arch aneurysm and Kommerell's diverticulum.
    Author: Zhao C, Sun Y, Wang Y, Li G, Meng P, Liu S, Yang J, Ma C.
    Journal: J Clin Ultrasound; 2019 Nov; 47(9):558-560. PubMed ID: 31099027.
    Abstract:
    Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is a common congenital cardiac malformation, frequently combined with ascending aorta dilation. However, isolated abnormalities of the aortic arch are less frequent in BAV patients. Here, we present a rare case of BAV combined with right-sided aortic arch aneurysm, aberrant left subclavian artery, and Kommerell's diverticulum, diagnosed by echocardiography and computed tomography angiography. The patient was followed-up regularly because of the life-threatening risks of aortic arch aneurysms.
