Abstract

Objective: Most of the available information on the natural history of aortic stenosis (AS) and pulmonary stenosis (PS) in children is based on studies carried out over the past 35-40 years using cardiac catheterization. This study aimed to reveal the natural history of congenital isolated mild valvular AS and PS in children using serial Doppler echocardiographic examinations.
