Abstract :
Background and Hypothesis: Discrete subaortic stenosis is considered an acquired cardiac detect of postnatal development; usually appear after the first year of life and causes LVOT of rapid hemodynamic progression. The relationship between ridgeseptal angle and progress of LVOTO has not been evaluated yet. Our objective was to evaluate the ridgeseptal angle as an important risk factor for progress of LVOT obstruction.
Keywords :
