Yes, a bicuspid aortic valve can be repaired if it is diseased. The procedure usually involves a small incision and the valve will either be repaired, or more often, replaced with a synthetic valve.

What are the values of the heart?
Valves of the heart: Bicuspid, Tricuspid, Mitral, Aortic
Can you list all of the valves in the heart?
Aortic, Bicuspid,tricuspid and Pulmonic valves.
Is the bicuspid and aortic semilunar valves on the righs side of the heart?
Anatomically speaking there on the left side
What are the names for the two different sets of heart valves?
Atrioventricular valves Bicuspid Valve Tricuspid valve Pulmonary valve Aortic valve these are all the valves which are part of the heart.
What valves are on the left side of the heart?
The bicuspid or mitral valve and the aortic valve are on the left side of the heart. The mitral valve separates the left atrium and left ventricle, and the aortic valve is between the left atrium and the aorta.
Why human heart does not has bicuspid valve instead of tricuspid valve?
The human heart has both Tricuspid and a Bicuspid Valve. The Bicuspid Valve is more commonly know as the Aortic Valve. All that bicuspid means is that there are only 2 leaflets in the valve instead of the normal three leaflets that would be found in the tricuspid valve or the mitral valve.
What valves are in the heart?
There are two valves in the heart. They are tricuspid valve and bicuspid valve.There is a possibility of the blood going back into the atria. This is prevented by these two valves, the tricuspid valve on the right side and the bicuspid valve on the left side.Tricuspid ValvePulmonary ValveMitral Valve (AKA Bicuspid Vlave)Aortic ValveThe four valves are known as:The tricuspid valveThe pulmonic or pulmonary valveThe mitral valveThe aortic valve
Which heart valve is open under pressure?
When the atria contract, there is increase in pressure in the atrial chambers. So both bicuspid and tricuspid valves opened up. When both the ventricles contract, both the bicuspid and tricuspid valves get closed. This opens up the aortic and pulmonary valves.
Can aortic dissection be fatal?
Aortic Dissection can be fatal if it is not recognized right away. It occurs when the wall of the aorta tears and blood flows in. Most people associate the pain with a heart attack and tend to ignore the symptoms.
Should you always take antibiotics after toothextraction?
No, unless you are at risk for infective endocarditis e.g. Prosthetic heart valve Congenital heart valve disease (e.g. bicuspid aortic) Previous rheumatic fever
Can tubal pregency cause a heart attack?
Tubal pregnancy can not cause heart attack.
Valves of the heart open and close due to?
Due to pressure changes in different chambers of the heart. For example, when the atria contract, the bicuspid and tricuspid valves open. They get closed, when the ventricles contract. When the ventricles contract the aortic and pulmonary valves open. Aortic and pulmonary valves close, when the ventricles relax.
