Abstract
Bicuspid aortic valve is the most common congenital anomaly and is
associated with the early onset of severe aortic stenosis by the fifth
decade. Here, we present the echocardiographic images of a 17-year-old
with bicuspid aortic valve who presented with symptomatic severe aortic
stenosis with a very high mean transvalvular gradient of 134 mmHg
