Eligibility

Sex/Gender
All

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: -Patients ? 18 years with bicuspid aortic valve confirmed by TTE (in case of doubt the use of other imaging techniques require: TEE or CT to confirm the diagnosis). -Disfunción Valve only moderate: in case of aortic stenosis with average =65 years) yes F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range 40

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: - Patients 2times the upper limit of normal by each laboratory), renal (creatinine clearance 2.5mg / dl), myopathy myopathy or creatine kinase levels> 5 times the ULN, and other gastrointestinal diseases, hematologic, endocrine or any other situation which in the opinion of the researcher may affect the assessment of study treatment - Hypersensitivity or intolerance to any component of the study drug or to intravenous contrast used in the TC - Pregnancy, lactation or gestational desire during the test period. In all women of childbearing age, a result of negative gonadotropin be required in the pregnancy test for entry into the study. - Ongoing Participation in another clinical trial

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: -To determine whether treatment with atorvastatin is effective in reducing the progression of aortic dilatation in patients with bicuspid aortic valve.;Secondary Objective: -To Define whether atorvastatin treatment slows the progression of valvular degeneration (valvular calcification) - To Define whether treatment with atorvastatin reduces clinical events during 3 years of follow-up.;Primary end point(s): Determination of the progression of aortic dilatation of the ascending aorta by measuring the change in diameter of the ascending aorta by CT in three years follow-up. The change in aortic diameter is defined by most of the differences between the measurements taken at the level of the aortic root and ascending aorta at baseline and end of study.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 3 years

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): 3 years;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 3 years
