Bicuspid aortic valve is a relatively common cause of congestive heart failure in young patients. In a young population, symptoms mnay not correlate with the severity of disease. We report a case of bicuspid aortic valve presenting with clinical features of unicuspid aortic valve, and mild symptoms despite severe hemodynamic compromise.
二叶式主动脉瓣是年轻患者充血性心力衰竭相对常见的病因。在年轻人群中,症状可能与疾病严重程度不相关。我们报告一例二叶式主动脉瓣患者,其临床表现为单叶式主动脉瓣的特征,尽管存在严重的血流动力学损害,但症状较轻。
