Causes
A bicuspid aortic valve usually functions normally during early life and middle age.
Aortic Stenosis
In some cases, symptoms will arise in young adulthood or later in life due to a thickening of the bicuspid aortic valve. This is called aortic stenosis.
Aortic Valve Insufficiency
Leaking of the aortic valve, known as aortic valve insufficiency, can also occur.
