Rheology of discrete subaortic stenosis
Abstract
The discrete form of subaortic stenosis is thought to be an acquired lesion, the aetiology of which may be a combination of factors which include an underlying genetic predisposition, turbulence in the left ventricular outflow tract, and various geometric and anatomical variations of the left ventricular outflow tract. A review of hypotheses relating to its aetiology is provided
- subaortic stenosis
- aortoseptal angle
- double outlet right ventricle
- ventricular septal defect
