Granular Media Calcinosis in the Aortic Walls of Patients With Bicuspid and Tricuspid Aortic Valves

Background Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV), the most frequent congenital cardiac abnormality, is associated with a higher risk for ascending aortic aneurysms and aorta-related complications (ie, dissection and rupture). The aim of this study was to quantify granular media calcinosis (GMC) in the ascendi...

description Background Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV), the most frequent congenital cardiac abnormality, is associated with a higher risk for ascending aortic aneurysms and aorta-related complications (ie, dissection and rupture). The aim of this study was to quantify granular media calcinosis (GMC) in the ascending aortic wall of patients with BAV. Methods We analyzed samples of the ascending aorta from patients with BAV (n = 54) and patients with tricuspid aortic valve (TAV) (n = 33) who underwent aortic repair, regarding medial thickness and diameter expansion. Additionally, the convexity and concavity of the samples were stained for GMC and elastin fragmentation. Results The quantitative analysis revealed a significantly higher extent of GMC in patients with BAV at the aortic convexity and concavity compared with patients with TAV, independent of aortic diameter. Additionally, GMC increased with enlargement of the aortic diameter in patients with BAV. Furthermore, we found a significantly reduced total medial thickness in patients with BAV compared with patients with TAV. Conclusions Our findings highlight GMC as a prominent feature of bicuspid aortopathy.
