A normal aortic valve has three cusps. A bicuspid aortic valve (i.e. having only two cusps) is mostly due to congenital malformation.A Bicuspid Aortic Valve may lead to varying degrees of severity of aortic stenosis and aortic regurgitation with variable courses of progression of stenosis, calcification and regurgitation. Hence a case of bicuspid aortic valve needs a scheduled follow up, to determine and plan management.
