چکیده

Figure 1: Preoperative computed tomography showed hourglass type of supravalvular aortic stenosis and aneurysmal changes of the innominate and the left subclavian artery. When she underwent ventricular septal defect repair at the age of 4 months, transverse aortotomy was made for evaluating a bicuspid aortic valve. Probably the transverse aortotomy was closed by a continuous suture, which, by definition, could not develop and grow with time, resulting in a tight aortic stenosis. Figure 2: Postoperative computed tomography after aortic root replacement with mechanical-valved conduit and total arch replacement with a fourbranched graft. The patient tolerated the procedure well and was discharged 2 weeks after surgery.

Aortic dysplasia in infancy simulating anomalous origin of the left coronary artery.

A case is reported of an infant believed to have had anomalous origin of the left coronary artery. Clinical evaluation and angiography appeared to support the diagnosis. At necropsy, however, the left coronary was seen to arise from the aorta but was totally occluded by dysplastic changes which resulted in myocardial infarction and death of the patient. There was minimal aortic deformity produc...

Background: Balloon valvuloplasty is a relatively new technique for relief of obstruction of aortic valve. The primary results of this procedure are similar to surgical valvotomy with fewer complications and mortality. Materials and methods: One hundred fifty-five patients with congenital aortic stenosis were enrolled in this study over a period of 6 years (1991-1997). Participants were all un...

Follow-up study of morphology and cardiac function in rats undergoing induction of supravalvular aortic stenosis.

OBJECTIVE To characterize the follow-up of an experimental model of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) induced by supravalvular ascending aortic stenosis in young rats. METHODS Wistar rats were submitted to thoracotomy and aortic stenosis was created by placing a clip on the ascending aorta (AoS group, n=12). Age-matched control animals underwent a sham operation (C group, n=12). Cardiac func...

[Congenital aortic supravalvular stenosis. Frequency and results of surgical treatment in a third level hospital].

In a prospective study made between 1 September 1996 and 31 December 2001, pediatric patients with a diagnosis of supravalvular aortic stenosis confirmed by a reduction in the aortic inner diameter and a gradient > or = 50 mmHg were detected. Of 83 patients with aortic stenosis, only 7 (8.4%) had supravalvular aortic stenosis. All 7 patients underwent surgical treatment consisting of resection ...
