Unicuspid unicommissural aortic valve

We describe a case of a 30-year-old woman with gradually increasing dyspnoea on exertion where CT angiography revealed a unicuspid unicommissural morphology of the aortic valve. The present report highlights the anatomical and embryological aspects of this rare anatomical variant as well as the associated cardiovascular abnormalities.

Abstract

We describe a case of a 30-year-old woman with gradually increasing dyspnoea on exertion where CT angiography revealed a unicuspid unicommissural morphology of the aortic valve. The present report highlights the anatomical and embryological aspects of this rare anatomical variant as well as the associated cardiovascular abnormalities.
