[Balloon valvuloplasty of a discrete subvalvular aortic stenosis].
We describe the successful percutaneous balloon valvuloplasty of a discrete subaortic stenosis in an adult patient. The maximal gradient of 160 mm Hg (mean 100) was reduced to 45 and 33 mm Hg respectively. The procedure required only one overnight hospital stay.
