Severe subaortic stenosis associated with congenital rubella syndrome: palliation by percutaneous transcatheter device occlusion of a patent ductus arteriosus.
Congenital rubella syndrome has been associated with several forms of congenital heart disease including left-sided obstructive lesions. This report describes a patient with severe subaortic stenosis, patent ductus arteriosus, and mild pulmonary branch stenosis, a rare condition. Palliation was achieved with percutaneous transcatheter device occlusion of the patent ductus arteriosus.
