Subaortic stenosis surgical correction after previous substernum coloesophagoplasty

J Card Surg. 2013 Nov;28(6):643-4. doi: 10.1111/jocs.12160. Epub 2013 Jul 12.

Abstract

Alternate approaches for aortic valve procedures are rare but occasionally used in cardiac surgery because of previous mediastinum radiotherapy or other procedures that preclude median sternotomy. We present one case of right lateral thoracotomy for membrane subaortic stenosis resection in a child with a restrosternal gastric tube.
