Aortic valve repair and aortic valve replacement may be done through traditional open-heart surgery, which involves a cut (incision) in the chest, or by using minimally invasive methods, which involve smaller incisions in the chest or a catheter inserted in the leg or chest (transcatheter aortic valve replacement, or TAVR).
Over time, a bicuspid aortic valve degenerates and calcifies causing a disorder known as aortic stenosis. Those who have aortic stenosis, usually found in middle age, often have bicuspid aortic valve disease too. To prevent serious problems such as stroke, or even premature death, the aortic valve needs to be replaced.
