title: [A case report of patch aortoplasty for supravalvular aortic stenosis associated with Williams syndrome].
abstract: A 15-year-old girl underwent patch aortoplasty for supravalvular aortic stenosis in association with Williams syndrome. Pressure gradient of before and after stenosis of the aorta decreased from 104 mmHg to 16 mmHg at the postoperative catheterization. Angiography after the operation showed no stenosis. Postoperative course was excellent and discharged on 14th postoperative day. The problems of the operation of supravalvular aortic stenosis were discussed.
