title: [Diagnosis of supravalvular stenosis of the aorta].
abstract: The authors analyzed the potentialities of combined radiodiagnosis of supravalvular stenosis (SS) and concomitant diseases of the heart and major vessels (Williams-Beuren syndrome) in 7 patients aged 7 mos. to 24 yrs. Polypositional chest and heart x-ray procedure, catheterization of the cardiac cavities, pulmonary artery and aorta, left ventriculography (6), right ventriculography (4) and angiopulmonography were used. The diagnostic potentialities of each method were defined. It was proved that SS practically in all patients was accompanied by major vascular changes in the pulmonary, vertebral, coronary, carotid, subclavicular, renal and other arteries, heart failure (atrial septal defect, and mitral incompetence).
