Abstract

Pediatric Aortic Stenosis (AS) should be suspected in children with fatigue, dizziness, cyanosis, and chest pain. AS can be associated with other congenital heart conditions. Echocardiogram is the first-line imaging study. Up to 40% of patients require intervention, generally involving repair and/or replacement of the aortic valve.

Keywords: congenital heart defect
