Abstract: 
The recent paper by the corresponding author Jian-an WANG and his team entitled "Evaluation of the safety and efficacy of transcatheter aortic valve implantation in patients with a severe stenotic bicus-pid aortic valve in a Chinese population" (Liu et al., 2015), published in the Journal of Zhejiang University- SCIENCE B (Biomedicine & Biotechnology), is very impressive. They evaluated the safety and efficacy of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) in patients with bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) and tricuspid aortic valve (TAV) for the first time in the Chinese population. This paper reported 40 cases of clinical experience of TAVI, and first explicitly put forward the indication of stenosis in the BAV. The early and mid-term outcomes between BAV and TAV groups are almost the same, and the high procedural success rate and low complication rate of their study are encouraging.
