When to Operate on the Bicuspid Valve Patient With a Modestly Dilated Ascending Aorta  Christian D. Etz, MD, PhD, Stefano Zoli, MD, Robert Brenner, MS, Fabian Roder, MS, Moritz Bischoff, MD, Carol A. Bodian, DrPH, Gabriele DiLuozzo, MD, Randall B. Griepp, MD  The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  Volume 90, Issue 6, Pages 1884-1892 (December 2010) DOI: 10.1016/j.athoracsur.2010.06.115 Copyright © 2010 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions

Fig 1 Between 1988 and 2008, a total of 158 consecutive patients with functionally normal bicuspid aortic valves (BAV) and ascending aortic dilatation were surveyed. Forty-two patients with a mean ascending tubular diameter of 5.6 ± 0.5 cm underwent immediate surgery. One hundred sixteen patients entered the surveillance program with initial mean tubular ascending diameters of 4.6 ± 0.5 cm; 45 had two or more digitized computed tomographic scans at least 150 days apart. Another forty-five patients with a mean tubular ascending diameter of 4.9 ± 0.6 cm underwent surgery an average 3.4 ± 2.9 years after their first scan. Twenty-six patients had one scan only.

Fig 2 Typical drawing of the 3D reconstruction of the aorta based on individually digitized CT scan as used to assess the entire aorta periodically during surveillance. Serial CT scans were digitized, providing diameter and area data of the ascending aorta, the transverse arch, and the descending and thoracoabdominal aorta. The tubular ascending aorta was individually identified in each 3D reconstruction and an estimate of the diameter of the tubular ascending aorta was calculated using the mean of the minor diameters of all ellipsoid CT slices contributing to the tubular ascending aorta.
