Angiocardiographic and operative observations support the validity of classifying the spectrum of congenital subvalvular aortic stenosis into a membrane, fibromuscular collar, and tunnel. Our current operative method is to excise a thin membrane or thick fibrous ridge, and, if a fibromuscular collar or tunnel is identified, to effect a left ventricular myomectomy as described by Morrow for hypertrophic subaortic stenosis. Data from experience with 35 children indicate that this approach is effective and safe. Gradients are substantially reduced and residual obstruction acceptable. Successive clinical evaluations (100 percent of 33 survivors) over an interval of 1 to 13 years (mean of 6) affirm that amelioration of the obstruction endures.
