BackgroundStudies have found conflicting results concerning the left ventricular (LV) myocardial deformation properties in patients with normally functioning bicuspid aortic valves (BAVs). Whether the remodeling process of LV occurs independently in patients with BAV is a matter of debate.MethodWe searched PubMed, Embase, Cochrane library, and Web of Science for cohort studies aiming to assess LV function in adults with isolated BAV compared with tricuspid aortic valve (TAV) controls. Standard mean difference (SMD) was calculated from random‐effects meta‐analyses.ResultsEight cohort studies were included. There were significantly lower global longitudinal strain (GLS), global radial strain (GRS), global circumferential strain (GCS) in BAV than in TAV controls (GLS: SMD = 0.64, 95% CI: 0.35 to 0.92, P < .0001; GRS: SMD = −0.71, 95% CI: −1.09 to −0.32, P = .0003; GCS: SMD = 0.70, 95% CI: 0.41 to 0.98, P < .00001) and significantly higher left atrial volume index (LAVI) and E/e’ in BAV than in TAV controls (LAVI: SMD = 0.50, 95% Cl: 0.12 to 0.88, P = .01; E/e’: SMD = 0.54, 95% CI: 0.30 to 0.77, P < .00001). There was significantly higher Left ventricular mass index(LVMI) in BAV than in TAV controls (SMD = 0.51, 95% CI: 0.24 to 0.79, P = .0003). Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was not significantly different between BAV patients and TAV controls (SMD = 0.05, 95% CI: −0.16 to 0.26, P = .63).ConclusionThe impairment of LV myocardial mechanics, including LV systolic, diastolic dysfunction and LV hypertrophy, is present in patients with normally functioning BAV. This might support the hypothesis that BAV is not only a valvular disease but also a myocardial disease.
