Echocardiographic estimation of critical left ventricular size in infants with isolated aortic valve stenosis

Echocardiographic estimation of critical left ventricular size in infants with isolated aortic valve stenosis

With the current trend to performing surgical valvotomy for infantile aortic stenosis without cardiac catheterization, there is a need to develop echocardiographic criteria for adequacy of left ventricular size. The echocardiograms and catheterization data of all 25 infants
