Illustration of the echocardiographic diagnosis of subaortic membrane stenosis in adults: surgical and live three-dimensional transoesophageal findings.

We report here two cases of patients admitted in our institution for heart failure. The first had been previously diagnosed with severe aortic valve stenosis and was referred for aortic valve replacement. The myocardial and valvular anatomy combined with the Doppler profiles allowed, however, to suggest the diagnosis of a discrete subaortic membrane that was confirmed by surgical findings. In t...

The relationship between subaortic membrane and aortic cusps evaluated by three-dimensional transthoracic echocardiography.

A discrete subaortic membrane is a rare cause of subaortic stenosis in adults. It may present in an isolated form as a fibrous or fibromuscular ring below the aortic valve. A 24 year-old male patient was admitted to our outpatient clinic with dyspnoea and palpitations. His physical examination was unremarkable except for an aortic 3/6 systolic murmur. Electrocardiography revealed normal sinus r...

Echocardiography in discrete subaortic stenosis.

Differentiating discrete subaortic stenosis (DSAS) from aortic valve stenosis (AVS) may be difficult, even at cardiac catheterization. Twenty-two patients with DSAS were studied echocardiographically and compared with 41 patients with AVS and 234 normal subjects. A ratio of left ventricular outflow tract to aortic root (LVOT: AO) < 0.80 determined LVOT narrowing in 19 of 22 DSAS patients. The a...

Incremental utility of Live/Real time three-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography in diagnosis of a unique type of subaortic membrane: a case report.

Discrete subaortic membranes are rare congenital abnormalities which may cause hemodynamic consequences secondary to left ventricular outflow obstruction. It may present as an isolated abnormality or may accompany other congenital abnormalities such as ventricular septal defects and bicuspid aortic valve (BAV). Two dimensional (2-D) and recently three dimensional (3-D) echocardiography is used ...

Multiplanar review analysis of three-dimensional echocardiographic datasets gives new insights into the morphology of subaortic stenosis.

AIMS Associated left ventricular structures may play a role in progression and recurrence of discrete subaortic stenosis. The availability of a new 3D echocardiography tool, multiplanar review (MPR), allows comprehensive analysis of datasets in infinite planes, and detailed examination of anatomy. We sought to evaluate the role of MPR in defining the morphology of subaortic stenosis. METHODS ...
