Popis: The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether bicuspid anatomy affects the discrepancy between CT-derived annular size and intraoperative size. We retrospectively analyzed annular measurements in 667 patients who underwent surgical aortic valve replacement (AVR). Preoperative CT measurements of the aortic annulus were compared to surgically implanted valve sizes. To evaluate whether the bicuspid valve affects the differences between CT annulus diameter and surgical AVR size, patients with diameter larger by > 10% (CT-Lg group) on CT, compared to surgical AVR size, were compared with those having size difference p p p p
