[Neonatal aortic valvular stenosis. Apropos of 8 cases].
Congenital aortic stenosis presenting in the neonate must be distinguished from the commoner hypoplastic left heart-syndrome, which is beyond surgical correction. It is certainly a serious problem, but early diagnosis and supporting angiography to rule out the presence of an associated left ventricular malformation and to check the volume of the left ventricular cavity should lead to a decision to operate. Out a 4 neonates from this series who were presented for surgery, the 2 survivors had good long-term results.
