title: Surgical treatment of subaortic stenosis and noncompaction of the left ventricle.
abstract: Late presentation of noncompaction of the left ventricle is rare, especially in the adult congenital population. We describe successful surgical management of severe pulmonary hypertension related to severe left ventricular outflow tract narrowing in the context of noncompaction of the ventricle in a 46-year-old female.
