[Considerations on the diagnostic and therapeutic approach to hypertrophic subaortic stenosis (author's transl)]

Several physiopathological, diagnostic and therapeutic considerations have arisen from the observation of an operated case of hypertrophic subaortic stenosis associated with mitralic insufficiency and fibrosis of the interventricular septum. Keeping in mind the variability of the clinical pictures and the functional and anatomical factors which determine the clinical picture of the hypertrophic subaortic stenosis, it is concluded that a careful, unbiassed, clinical approach is necessary to determine the therapeutic procedure in each individual case.
