Presents comprehensive coverage of valvular heart disease to provide you with a complete reference and one-stop shop for this specialty in cardiac medicine. [books.google.ro]
In conclusion, discrete subaortic stenosis is commonly diagnosed incidentally, as it is not frequently present at birth and often develops later. [tgkdc.dergisi.org]
We present the case of a patient who underwent surgery as an adult and was diagnosed with severe SAS 22 years later. [revespcardiol.org]

- Heart Murmur
A doctor hears this as a heart murmur. The subaortic membrane is twice as common in males. It has been reported in family clusters. It is more severe when diagnosed in children, rather than in adults. [achaheart.org]
Other forms of LVOTO are often asymptomatic and may be detected by the presence of a heart murmur or abnormalities on ECG. Chest pain, dyspnea, and palpitations occur with increased activity as the degree of obstruction worsens. [mhmedical.com]
murmur Two-dimensional echocardiography, with zoom on aortic valve, showing an echo-reflective, linear structure in the LV outflow tract. [3decho360.com]
The heart murmur may be absent or faint but becomes louder when CHF improves. Electrocardiography. In mild cases the ECG is normal. ECG may show right ventricular hypertrophy, left ventricular hypertrophy, and/or evidence of myocardial ischemia. [elearning.sumdu.edu.ua]
- Cyanosis
Cyanosis is present from birth, the degree varying with the associated mixing lesion. Diagnosis a. Physical examination. Intense cyanosis is noted in the absence of mixing lesions. [elearning.sumdu.edu.ua]
The fenestration can usually be closed percutaneously later in life to eliminate residual cyanosis [ 146 ]. [omicsonline.org]
These physiologic corrections provided relief of cyanosis and reasonably good survival ( 153 ). [journals.lww.com]
The major findings on clinical examination were: Pulse rate 88 beats/min with radio femoral delay; upper limb blood pressure (BP) 140/70 mm Hg; lower limb BP 86/70 mm Hg; jugular venous pressure not raised; no cyanosis and no clubbing; apex beat localized [heartviews.org]
Patients with an anatomic left ventricular outflow tract obstruction tend to have better left-to-right shunting in the VSD and less cyanosis than others. d-TGA with intact ventricular septum are best repaired after 1-2 weeks from birth because a drop [pedcard.rush.edu]
- Weak Pulse
The newborns generally have weak pulses throughout, signs of heart failure, and often little in the way of murmurs, despite the severe left ventricular outflow tract obstruction. ECG. [fqz301.brinkster.net]

Severity of mitral valve obstruction correlates with poor long-term prognosis. [heartviews.org]
Right-to-left commissures have worse prognosis in bicuspid aortic than anteroposterior commissures in developing aortic stenosis. Also eccentric orifices have worse prognosis than central orifices in developing aortic stenosis. [pedcard.rush.edu]

Prognosis Although natural history studies have not delineated the annual mortality rate, 2-10% of sudden deaths are reported in untreated individuals with severe left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction, including subvalvar aortic stenosis [emedicine.medscape.com]

Interaction of genetic predisposition and morphologically deformed long and narrow LVOT cause rheological abnormalities and increased shear stress in the region of subaortic stenosis and seem to be the main etiological factor alongwith poorly defined [japi.org]
Epidemiology
Epidemiology Left ventricular outflow tract obstruction (LVOTO) occurs in 2.8 of 10,000 live births, accounting for 3 to 6 percent of congenital heart defects. [mhmedical.com]
However, the Newfoundland dog has been shown to experience an increased incidence of subaortic membranes, which may in part be secondary to inbreeding and is consistent with an autosomal inheritance. [10] Epidemiology The approximate incidence of congenital [emedicine.medscape.com]
Epidemiologic studies suggest that these defects account for nearly 30% (range, 16%–50%) of all cases ( 47,48 ). Communications at the ventricular level can be found in isolation or may be seen in the context of other structural malformations. [journals.lww.com]
Pathophysiology
Pathophysiology Rare in infancy, subaortic stenosis may present as distinct fibromuscular stenosis, or as hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM). [chw.org]
Pathophysiology. To maintain cardiac output, right ventricular pressure rises. In severe stenosis, right ventricular end-diastolic pressure may also increase. [elearning.sumdu.edu.ua]
Pathophysiology Obstruction at any level causes increased left ventricular systolic pressure and wall stress and consequent left ventricular hypertrophy. Left ventricular hypertrophy produces subendocardial ischemia and diastolic dysfunction. [mhmedical.com]

Prevention
The use of intraoperative TEE helps to detect the location and extension of the resection and thus to prevent a residual gradient from remaining. As a result, surgery-related heart block and iatrogenic VSD due to operations can be prevented. [tgkdc.dergisi.org]

Early surgical repair of SAS has been advocated to prevent rapid progression of LVOTO. A significant LV-aortic mean gradient, ├óÔÇ░─ä30mmHg in children and ├óÔÇ░─ä50mmHg in adults, requires surgery. SAS has a progressive nature in adult patients. [radcliffecardiology.com]
