Aortic Dilatation in Bicuspid Aortic Valve Disease

Abstract

La valvula aortica bicuspide (VAB) es la anomalia cardiaca congenita mas comun, con una incidencia de un 0,5-1,4% de la poblacion. De forma esporadica, esta anomalia se transmite geneticamente segun un patron de herencia autosomico dominante, con un predominio en varones de 3:1. La VAB es una entidad clinicamente relevante, no solo por las complicaciones relacionadas con la valvula (disfuncion valvular, endocarditis infecciosa), sino tambien por su asociacion con muchas anomalias vasculares como la dilatacion aortica (fig. 1A). La prevalencia registrada de dilatacion aortica asociada a VAB oscila entre el 33 y el 80%. Esta variacion se atribuye a diferencias en los umbrales utilizados para definir la dilatacion, los valores normales para edad y superficie corporal y la region de aorta analizada. Se han descrito diferentes tipos de aneurisma aortico en funcion de la region afectada, y la dilatacion de la aorta ascendente media (dilatacion aislada de la porcion tubular de la aorta ascendente) es el patron observado mas frecuentemente. Se ha relacionado la edad y la morfologia valvular con las dimensiones de la aorta ascendente (AoAsc), aunque el papel de la morfologia no esta claramente definido.
