چکیده

Subaortic stenosis usually occurs without a previous heart operation, however, it can occur after heart surgery as well, with a condition known as a secondary subaortic stenosis (SSS). SSS has been reported after surgical repair of several congenital heart defects. There are only a few recorded cases of SSS after repair of ventricular septal defect (VSD). Here we report a rare case of SSS that occurred 3 years after surgical repair of subarterial VSD. A follow-up echocardiogram is essential for detecting SSS caused by the newly developed subaortic membrane in patients who had cardiac surgery.

Does patch closure of subarterial ventricular septal defect affect the growth of pulmonary valve?

OBJECTIVE Patch closure of the subarterial ventricular septal defect requires suture placement at the pulmonary annulus. We aimed to identify whether patch closure of subarterial ventricular septal defect would affect the growth of pulmonary annulus in comparison with that of perimembranous ventricular septal defect. METHODS Of 361 patients who underwent patch closure of ventricular septal de...

Double-chambered right ventricle.

UNLABELLED Between May 1974 and December 1993, 37 patients (0.75%) with a double-chambered right ventricle underwent surgical repair. The patients ranged in age from 11 months to 12 years (mean 4 +/- 1.1 years). Cardiac catheterization was performed in 36 patients. The proximal right chamber pressure was 118 +/- 10 mmHg and the mean ventricular gradient pressure was 75 +/- 10 mmHg. A ventricula...

Progressive discrete subaortic stenosis developed after successful primary repair of the supravalvular aortic stenosis in Williams syndrome.

Discrete subaortic stenosis is a rare, late complication of the surgical repair of congenital heart defects. Secondary subaortic stenosis late after surgical repair of supravalvular aortic stenosis in Williams syndrome has not previously been described. A 20 year-old female patient with Williams syndrome became symptomatic eight years after subaortic membrane resection. A discrete subaortic ste...

[Subaortic stenosis more than twenty years after surgical repair of a partial atrial septal defect in an adult].

Subaortic stenosis after surgical correction of a partial atrioventricular septal defect is uncommon. When it occurs, it is usually diagnosed 6-8 years after early surgical repair in childhood. We present a female patient who underwent mitral valve cleft repair and closure of a partial atrial septal defect with a Teflon patch at the age of 48 years. Twenty-two years later, she presented with se...
