Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2000
Choice of the best surgical option for aortic stenosis (AS) must be individualized and requires discussion among patient, cardiologist, and surgeon to weigh the risks and benefits of different options. Mechanical valves have been preferred for young patients, for those with a life expectancy of more than 10 to 15 years, or for those who require ...

Comprehensive Therapy, 2007
Patients with aortic stenosis (AS) have an increased prevalence of coronary risk factors, coronary artery disease, and other atherosclerotic vascular disease and an increased incidence of coronary events and death. Statins may reduce the progression of AS.

Balloon valvuloplasty provides optimal treatment for moderate and severe pulmonary valve stenosis. Dysplastic pulmonary valves may not respond to balloon dilation and frequently require surgical treatment. Balloon angioplasty with or without stenting is the preferred treatment of peripheral pulmonary stenosis.

The Lancet, 2009
In developed countries, aortic stenosis is the most prevalent of all valvular heart diseases. A manifestation of ageing, the disorder is becoming more frequent as the average age of the population increases. Symptomatic severe disease is universally fatal if left untreated yet is consistent with a typical lifespan when mechanical relief of the stenosis

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1962
Stenosis of the tracheostoma following laryngectomy is not an infrequent complication. It may occur immediately after the operation, or it may develop years later. The stenosis, especially with the addition of crusting, can lead to an emergency situation, and can, on occasion, result in asphyxia.

On the nature of the “stenosis” in congenitalhypertrophic pyloric stenosis
The Journal of Pediatrics, 1956Summary A case is presented in which surgicaltreatment of a true pyloric stenosis was delayed because a large rubber catheter was passed through the pylorus. This is further evidence of the fact that functional inhibition of normal peristalsis occurs due to edema alone and a true anatomical stenosis in the mucosa need not be present.

Current Problems in Pediatric and Adolescent Health Care, 2018
Subglottic stenosis refers to narrowing of the airway diameter below the vocal folds and may be congenital or acquired. Typical signs and symptoms range from recurrent croup and exertional stridor to complete airflow obstruction requiring tracheotomy. Management of moderate and severe subglottic stenosis often requires intricate surgical techniques. To

Valvular aortic stenosis in pediatric age group is mostly congenital in origin. The aortic valve may be unicuspid, bicuspid, tricuspid or rarely quadricuspid. Left ventricle undergoes concentric hypertrophy secondary to obstruction to its outflow tract. In neonatal aortic stenosis, left ventricle may be hypoplastic.

Although stenosis of the pulmonary tract with transposition is one of the most common anomalies encountered in the heart, isolated stenosis of the lower bulbar orifice without transposition is relatively rare. We were able to study clinically over an extended period a patient who on postmortem examination presented this type of anomaly.
