Abstract

A rotational data acquisition system was used to create three‐dimensional images from thoracic and subxiphoid echocardiography windows in children with various types of subaortic stenosis. Thirteen patients, ranging in age from 2 days to 17 years, were examined. Subaortic obstruction was caused by a discrete fibrous ridge in six patients, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy in two patients, subaortic tunnel in two patients, and septal malalignment, restrictive VSD, and abnormal suture placement each in one patient. Unique views could be obtained equivalent to surgical or autopsy dissections, and allowed more complete understanding of morphology than conventional imaging techniques.
