First-Degree Relatives of Patients with the Most Common Cardiac Birth Defect Should be Screened for Larger-Than-Normal Aortas
newswise.com — “About one-third of first-degree relatives of patients with Bicuspid Aortic Valve, the most common congenital heart defect, have larger-than-normal aortas and should get a screening echocardiogram (ultrasound of the heart) to identify and prevent aortic ruptures, according to an article in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology. Kirsten Tolstrup, MD, the study's author, is available to provide details and explain the findings.” View full resource at newswise.com
