Fixed subaortic stenosis after repair of ostium primum defects.

1965 report of idiopathic hypertrophic subaortic stenosis with ostium secundum atrial septal defect.

In an article entitled "Idiopathic Hypertrophic Subaortic Stenosis with Ostium Secundum Atrial Septal Defect: Successful Surgical Correction" (Chest 68:246-248, 1975), Smith and associates reported the surgical correction of coincident id ie pathic hypertrophic subaortic stenosis with ostium secundum atrial septal defect. These investigators stated that in 1971 their patient was reported by For...

Surgical Experience of a Partial Atrioventricular Septal Defect in an Elderly Patient: A Case Report

The following paper describes patch closure (bovine pericardial sheet) of an ostium primum atrial septal defect and mitral valve repair (sutured mitral valve cleft + autologous pericardial annuloplasty + Alfieri’s method) in a 50-year-old man. He had been perfectly well until he was brought to the emergency room because of acute heart failure. Chest radiography revealed right-side heart enlarge...

Etiology of right bundle branch block pattern following surgical repair of atrioventricular cushion defects.

Electrocardiograms and surgical data from 12 patients with complete atrioventricular canal defects and 24 patients with ostium primum defects were evaluated before and after open heart surgery in order to document the incidence of postoperative right bundle branch block. The use and precise location of septal sutures utilized for repair were specifically noted in order to assess their possible ...

Mitral Incompetence after Repair of Ostium Primum Septal Defects.

[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...
