Since bicuspid valves are capable of regulating blood flow properly, this condition may go undetected without regular screening.
With special reference to the development of aortic stenosis upon congenital bicuspid valves.
The mitral valve is also called the bicuspid valve because it contains two leaflets or cusps.
This results from the fusing of two of the cusps during embryonic development forming a bicuspid valve instead of a tricuspid valve.
The right side of the atrial canal will become the tricuspid valve and the left will become the bicuspid valve.
Normally the only cardiac valve that is bicuspid is the mitral valve (bicuspid valve) which is situated between the left atrium and left ventricle.
The bicuspid valve also prevents the backflow of blood into the left atrium during ventricular contraction (systole).
The aorta arose from the large left ventricle through a competent bicuspid valve.
