Tunnel Subaortic Stenosis

چکیده
The clinical and morphologic features of tunnel subaortic stenosis, an unusual form of obstruction to left ventricular outflow, are described in 11 patients. Although patients with tunnel subaortic stenosis demonstrate a variety of cardiovascular malformations, the most characteristic anatomic feature is fibromuscular tubular narrowing of the outflow tract that remains relatively unchanged during the cardiac cycle. The aortic anulus was abnormally small in six of the 11 patients, including one who also had a hypoplastic ascending aorta. Evidence of a small mitral orifice was present

Long-term results of surgical repair in patients with congenital subaortic stenosis.
OBJECTIVES The aim of the study was to analyze the long-term results of congenital subvalvar aortic stenosis (SAS) relief and the risk factors associated with recurrence and reoperations. METHODS Between January 1960 and March 2005, 190 patients underwent surgical correction for discrete (n=140) and tunnel (n=50) congenital subaortic stenosis. There were 115 male and 75 female patients rangin...
متن کاملAortoventriculoplasty for tunnel subaortic stenosis and other obstructions of the left ventricular outflow tract. Clinical and hemodynamic results.
A new therapeutic concept of enlarging the outflow tracts of both ventricles with a patch and inserting an aortic prosthesis has been developed for the treatment of tunnel subaortic stenosis. This operation has been applied clinically since June 1974 on several types of obstruction in the outflow tract of the left ventricle. Twenty-one operations have been performed on 20 patients under the age...

متن کاملLeft ventricular outflow tract obstruction defined by active three-dimensional echocardiography using rotational transthoracic acquisition.
A rotational data acquisition system was used to create three-dimensional images from thoracic and subxiphoid echocardiographic windows in children with various types of subaortic stenosis. Thirteen patients, ranging in age from 2 days to 17 years, were examined. Subaortic obstruction was caused by a discrete fibrous ridge in six patients, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy in two patients, subaortic ...
متن کاملSurgical Management of Left Ventricular Outflow Tract Obstruction after Biventricular Repair of Double Outlet Right Ventricle
Regardless of the preoperative morphology and the type of operation, left ventricular outflow tract obstruction (LVOTO) after biventricular repair of double outlet right ventricle (DORV) may develop. This report presents our 10-yr experience with surgical management of LVOTO after biventricular repair of DORV. Between 1996 and 2006, 15 patients underwent reoperation for subaortic stenosis after...
