Population-based treated prevalence, risk factors, and outcomes of bicuspid aortic valve in a pediatric Medicaid cohort

Abstract: Background:We investigated the treated prevalence of bicuspid aortic valve in a pediatric population with congenital heart disease and its incident complications.Materials and Methods:A 15-year retrospective data set was analyzed. Selection criteria included age ≤17 years, enrollees in the South Carolina State Medicaid program and diagnosed as having bicuspid aortic valve on one or more service visits.Results:The 15-year-treated prevalence of predominantly isolated bicuspid aortic valve was 2% (20/1000) of ped… Show more

“…The robust heritability of BAV was demonstrated in studies showing that primary relatives are ten-fold more likely to have a BAV than matched controls (3). While more than 50% of individuals with BAV undergo aortic valve surgery during their lifetimes, phenotypic expression of BAV varies widely, with only approximately 10% of patients with BAV requiring aortic valve surgery in the first two decades of life (4,5).…”
