In patients with a BAV who have undergone previous aortic valve repair or replacement and have a diameter of the aortic root, ascending aortic, or both of ≥4.0 cm, lifelong surveillance imaging of the aortic root and ascending aorta by TTE, CT, or MRI is recommended at an interval dependent on aortic diameter and rate of growth.1–3
1 C-LD 2. In patients with a BAV and a diameter of the aortic root, ascending aorta, or both of ≥4.0 cm, lifelong surveillance imaging of the aortic root and ascending aorta by TTE, CT, or MRI is recommended at an interval dependent on aortic diameter and rate of growth.4,5
