Abstract

• Rare presentation of three QAV cases with varied clinical manifestations is reported. • Multimodal imaging is crucial for accurate QAV diagnosis and classification. • QAV is often associated with aortic regurgitation requiring intervention. • Surgical repair is preferred over replacement in suitable patients with QAV. • Long-term follow-up is essential for patients with QAV, even if asymptomatic.
