Abstract
OBJECTIVES: Supravalvar aortic stenosis (SVAS) is a rare congenital anomaly. The "single-patch technique," "'two sinus augmentation with an inverted Y-patch" (both nonsymmetrical corrections), "three-patch technique," and the "slide aortoplasty" (both symmetrical corrections) are the techniques implemented by the majority of surgeons for the correction of SVAS. In the few studies that compared these techniques, no technique was shown to be superior over another. The aim of the present study is to review the 52-year experience with the surgical correction of SVAS in two of four congenital cardiothoracic surgical centers in the Netherlands.
