  • Title: Pulsed Doppler and two-dimensional echocardiographic findings in aortico-left ventricular tunnel.
    Author: Fripp RR, Werner JC, Whitman V, Nordenberg A, Waldhausen JA.
    Journal: J Am Coll Cardiol; 1984 Nov; 4(5):1012-4. PubMed ID: 6491067.
    Abstract:
    Two-dimensional echocardiography was used to make the anatomic diagnosis of aortico-left ventricular tunnel in a 1 day old infant. Pulsed Doppler echocardiography allowed directional flow to be determined within the tunnel. The findings were confirmed by cardiac catheterization and by direct visualization at the time of surgical repair. Aortic valve insufficiency was excluded before and after surgery using pulsed Doppler echocardiography. The anatomy and physiology of aortico-left ventricular tunnel can thus be documented using noninvasive techniques.
