ANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -Bicuspid aortic valve is a heart problem present at birth. That means it is a congenital heart defect. The aortic valve is between the left lower heart chamber and the body’s main artery, called the aorta.

Detailed explanation-2: -Bicuspid valve is present between left auricle and left ventricle. It prevents the back flow of blood in the left chambers. It also separates left auricle and left ventricle from each other.

Detailed explanation-3: -The location of the bicuspid valve is in between the left atrium and the left ventricle which are the two left chambers of the heart. The bicuspid valve consists of two valves or cusps. It ensures that the blood flows in one direction and that there is no backflow of blood from the left atrium to the left ventricle.

Detailed explanation-4: -Mitral Valve Separates the top left chamber (left atrium) from the bottom left chamber (left ventricle). Opens to allow blood to flow from the left atrium to the left ventricle. Prevents the back flow of blood from the left ventricle to the left atrium.

Detailed explanation-5: -Conversely, a bicuspid valve works better on the high pressure side because with only two sides to the valve, the muscles and ligaments are able to cover more area and be better able to spring back from the high pressure on the left side of the heart.
