    Summary

    This case report details subaortic stenosis caused by two distinct membranes. Surgical excision via a transaortic approach successfully treated this rare congenital anomaly.

    Area of Science:

    • Cardiovascular Surgery
    • Pediatric Cardiology
    • Congenital Heart Disease

    Background:

    • Subaortic stenosis is a narrowing below the aortic valve, often congenital.
    • Discrete subaortic membranes are a rare cause of this obstruction.
    • Accurate diagnosis is crucial for effective management.

    Observation:

    • A patient presented with subaortic stenosis attributed to two separate, discrete membranes.
    • Intraventricular pressure gradients and angiocardiography confirmed dual obstruction sites.
    • The membranes were surgically removed using a transaortic approach.

    Findings:

    • Successful excision of both subaortic membranes was achieved.
    • The transaortic approach provided adequate access for complete membrane removal.
    • This case highlights a rare presentation of subaortic stenosis.

    Implications:

    • Highlights the importance of recognizing rare congenital heart anomalies.
    • Emphasizes the effectiveness of surgical intervention for discrete subaortic membranes.
    • Informs surgical strategies for complex subaortic stenosis cases.
