  • Title: The vanishing subaortic membrane.
    Author: Berger RL, Kronzon I.
    Journal: Eur J Echocardiogr; 2008 Jul; 9(4):569-71. PubMed ID: 18579483.
    Abstract:
    A fixed subaortic membrane is a rare cause for left ventricular outflow tract obstruction. This case report describes an unusual echocardiographic presentation of a subaortic membrane in which the membrane, initially not seen, was identified only after a linear shadow posterior to the membrane was seen on a transesophageal echocardiogram. This represents an unusual demonstration of an ultrasound beam 'dropout' of a subaortic membrane.
