title: Two-dimensional echocardiographic diagnosis of subaortic aneurysm.
abstract: Subaortic aneurysms are uncommon and most cases have been reported among black Africans. The present report relates to our experience with three patients having subaortic annular aneurysms, two of congenital origin and one following infective endocarditis of the aortic valve. The role of transthoracic 2- dimensional echocardiography in the diagnosis is emphasized.
