What is an aortic flap?

An aortic flap is a term often used to describe a structure in the heart, specifically related to the aortic valve. It refers to one of the three cusps or leaflets that make up the aortic valve, which regulates blood flow from the heart into the aorta. The proper functioning of these flaps is crucial for maintaining unidirectional blood flow and preventing backflow into the heart. Abnormalities in the aortic flaps can lead to conditions such as aortic stenosis or regurgitation.
