Bicuspid Aortic Valves and Dilatation of the Ascending Aorta: Reply Francis Robicsek, MD, PhD The Annals of Thoracic Surgery Volume 80, Issue 4, Pages 1562-1563 (October 2005) DOI: 10.1016/j.athoracsur.2005.02.057 Copyright © 2005 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions

Fig 1 Opening cycle of a congenitally bicuspid aortic valve without a measurable pressure gradient in a pulse duplicator. The valve gradually opens (top row, from left to right), the opening continues (bottom row, left to right), but even in maximum opening (right lower corner) the valve remains approximately 40% stenotic.
