Detailed explanation-1: -Normally, the mitral valve is the only bicuspid valve and this is situated between the heart’s left atrium and left ventricle. Heart valves play a crucial role in ensuring the unidirectional flow of blood from the atrium to the ventricles, or from the ventricle to the aorta or pulmonary trunk.
Detailed explanation-2: -The third name is the bicuspid valve because the valve has two cusps. There are a number of ways to remember that the bicuspid valve is on the left hand side. First, you learn to ride a tricycle (tricuspid valve) before you ride a bicycle (bicuspid valve).
Detailed explanation-3: -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-4: -The mitral valve is also called the bicuspid valve and the left atrioventricular valve.
