Abstract Membranous ventricular septal aneurysm is a known entity but rarely causes severe right ventricular outflow obstruction. We report a 40-year-old female with trisomy 18 who developed severe right ventricular outflow obstruction caused by an enormous membranous septal aneurysm associated with unrepaired inlet ventricular septal defect with perimembranous extension.

Enlargement of the bulboventricular foramen (BVF) in double-inlet left ventricle or the ventricular septal defect (VSD) in tricuspid atresia with transposition of the great arteries is one approach for prevention or treatment of systemic ventricular outflow obstruction. Most often, BVF/VSD restriction is bypassed preemptively or addressed directly at the time of Glenn/Fontan procedures as part of staged univentricular palliation. We describe a patient who underwent enlargement of a restrictive VSD during Fontan completion and subsequently presented with an asymptomatic pseudoaneurysm of the right ventricle at the ventriculotomy site.

SummaryAccessory atrioventricular valvar tissue is uncommon and, on occasion, has been identified as a cause of ventricular outflow obstruction. Accessory tricuspid valvar tissue has been reported to cause subpulmonary obstruction but infrequently has accessory tissue arising from the mitral valve been associated with obstruction. This paper reports two cases of subvalvar obstruction; the first in association with a ventricular septal defect causing subaortic obstruction and the other in association with congenitally corrected transposition and a ventricular septal defect, causing subpulmonary obstruction.

Tetralogy of Fallot is the most common cyanotic congenital heart defect consisting of an overriding aorta, right ventricular outflow obstruction, ventricular septal defect, and right ventricular hypertrophy. Without surgical management, approximately only 3% of patients survive past the age of 40 years. Cases of unoperated patients reaching adulthood have been reported; however, few studies describe treatment guidelines for surgical or therapeutic management. In this article, we report the case of a 59-year-old Hispanic male with unoperated tetralogy of Fallot presenting to our cardiology clinic for initial workup and management.
