subvalvular aortic stenosis?

---

Once corrected, how common is regrowth. will alcohol, nicotine, and thc increase any complications? Will the same symptoms come back? With out the ability to see a heart specialist, what are some options? What are some longterm efeects?
I may not be very helpful here, but you may be talking about IHSS, or "Idiopathic Hypertrophic Subaortic Stenosis" which is different from Aortic Stenosis.
Try the Wikipedia website for some info. Also maybe the Mayo Clinic website.  (+ info)

pulmonary stenosis including?

---

what are the alterations in blood flow from the normal fetal and postnatal patterns in pulmonary stenosis including tetralogy of fallot?
Your question isn't very clear and is confusing...you mentioned alterations in blood flow...normal fetal and post natal patterns (of bloodflow I assume)...and mentioned tetrology of fallot. Are you asking what the difference is between the normal and fallot? When and/or where is the pulmonary stenosis relavent? or which one of the patterns or conditions do you want the stenosis applied to or considered in answering your question. Sorry...need more info. :)  (+ info)

Pulmonary Stenosis?

---

My daughter is 1 month old and she has mild pulmonary stenosis. My husbands sister was born with a heart problem, his mother died from heart failure, and his cousin just died from heart failure. These are all women, and all the women on his side of the family have heart problems. Could my daughter's heart problem be genetic?
Pulmonic stenosis is narrowing of the pulmonary outflow tract causing obstruction of blood flow from the right ventricle to the pulmonary artery during systole. Most cases are congenital; many remain asymptomatic until adulthood. Signs include a crescendo-decrescendo ejection murmur. Diagnosis is by echocardiography. Symptomatic patients and those with large gradients require balloon valvuloplasty.
Less common causes are Noonan's syndrome (a familial syndrome similar to Turner's syndrome but with no chromosomal defect) and carcinoid syndrome in adults.
Consult your Cardiologist.

Is pulmonary stenosis and proteinuria related?Please answer! HELP ME?

---

i suffered from pulmonary stenosis since i was born. i had treatment when i was 2 years old. now i am 16, i did urine test yesterday at the hospital. as a result, the doctor said there's protein in my urine. my kidney "leaks" . the result is ALBUMIN : +1 . i did some research through the internet and i get to know that i suffer from proteinuria. so, what should i do? is pulmonary stenosis and proteinuria related?
Please help me to answer this question, my life is in danger :(
Congenital pulmonary stenosis and proteinuria are not related at all to one another. A small amount of protein in the urine can be normal. A +1 reading on the urinary dipstick is actually not significantly elevated. A small amount of protein in the urine can occur temporarily in healthy individuals and this leads to no long term problems. Exercise and postural changes can lead to a small amount of proteinuria in some healthy individuals. Therefore you should have this rechecked in the future and if it resolves then it is nothing to worry about. Protein can also be present in the urine secondary to the presence of white or red cells. If you had > 5 WBC or RBC, then this is the likely cause and nothing to worry about.

Proteinuria can be a sign of kidney disease also, but kidney disease is associated with more significant proteinuria than you have. Further testing can be performed to further quantify your proteinuria. This is usually done by a urine protein/creatinine ratio or a 24 hour urine sample. Your life is certainly not in danger. Even if this was secondary to a kidney condition, it would be unlikely to lead to any immediate problems at this level. Continue following with your doctor regarding this. Also be careful about doing your own research on the internet. I am guessing most of what you will find regarding this would be irrelevant to your case.  (+ info)

Pulmonary Stenosis and Playing a Musical Instrument (Woodwind/Brass)?

---

The time has come for my 8 year old son to pick an instrument in school. He wants to play the bassoon, but that may not happen for awhile due to availability of a short-reach bassoon.

Anyhow, he could start on the clarinet or oboe to work towards a bassoon. I took him into a music store to try them out, and he was blowing REALLY hard into the oboe (I guess it takes some getting used to), and so the guy let him try a clarinet for awhile, which wasn't as ha.

The guy told me that my son's lip shape (teardrop) and teeth (right now there's a space) would probably rule out brass and flute. (I'm not sure I buy that).

He has a mild narrowing of his pulmonary valve or pulmonary stenosis with a heart murmur. Although he's been cleared for activities, I think that the doctor means that exertion is ok. I'm not sure if purposely blowing hard into an instrument could harm him, and I believe the school will be deciding instruments before I can see the doctor.

Anyone dealt with this?
Just heard from the cardiologist today, and he said that it is ok for him to play!
My son is only 18 months but he has the same condition of a pulmonary stenosis and murmur. We do blowing whistles and bubbles in speech therapy. As a nurse I can tell you that the blowing will not hurt him. He could have trouble keeping up with the endurance of blowing. I would advise the music teachers of his condition and tell him to look out for dizziness or blue lips and that he could need to take a break. He probably won't have these happening but it could. How long ago did he get dx with the stenosis because it usually improves over time (if congenital-at birth)?  (+ info)

Pulmonary Stenosis and likelihood of getting hit in the chest during soccer?

---

I would like to sign my 8 year old son up for soccer, but I am worried about him getting hit in the chest.

He has a mild narrowing of his pulmonary valve or pulmonary stenosis with a heart murmur. Any injury requires an antibiotic and he's already allergic to penicillin. Although he's been cleared for activities, I think that the doctor means that exertion is ok. I don't think he'd think purposely playing sports with a high risk of chest hits or compression is a good idea.

My son has been in gymnastics for 3 years and would normally be in T-ball but there is a waiting list. So I am thinking of soccer. Can any soccer players tell me what the likelihood of getting hit in the chest is?
Because soccer players do get hit in the chest by contact with other players or a kicked ball or a fall, it would be best to discuss your son's planned sports activities with his pediatric cardiologist.  (+ info)

Pediatric Pulmonary Stenosis AND related syndromes/diseases?

---

What syndromes and diseases are related to Pulmonary Stenosis. My son's pediatric cardiologist suspects an undiagnosed health issue. The syndromes/diseases "may" also be associated with immunity problems (catching every cold/etc. that goes around), asthma, allergies, ADHD, or strabismis. I'm not certain what he had in mind; but one of the health concerns he mentioned was Noonan's (but my son does not have any facial abnormalities). Due to time constraints, the cardiologist could not elaborate on the subject. I'd appreciate any information you may have to offer. Thanks :)
Thanks, the link provided a list of various syndromes, etc. which gave me an idea of what the doctor was thinking.

- Chromosome 17q, partial duplication syndrome
- Chromosome 22q, duplication syndrome
- Neurofibromatosis-Noonan syndrome
- Noonan syndrome
- Rheaumatic heart disease
- Keutel syndrome
- Ivemark syndrome
- Watson syndrome
- Turner's syndrome
- Cardiofaciocutaneous syndrome
- Carcinoid tumours and carcinoid syndrome
- Fallot's tetralogy
- Alagille syndrome

p.s i dont want to hear that my spelling is bad (i already know that)

i genuinly want to help
Hello. It is very good that you would like to help others and I wish more people felt this way. It would be helpful to know more details regarding your history of pulmonary stenosis and the severity of it. Pulmonary stenosis in itself is not a contraindication to donating blood, but the shift in blood volume can potentially lead to problems in people with severe pulmonary stenosis. If your stenosis is minimal or mild, then this is unlikely to lead to any problems and you should be able to donate blood with no problems. If you had severe pulmonary stenosis, then it probably would not be a good idea to donate blood and you would definitely have to discuss this with your Cardiologist. I assume you do not have severe pulmonary stenosis, because you would have likely had it repaired by now. Unfortunately, no one on yahoo answers knows the details of your pulmonary stenosis or other medical issues. Therefore it is impossible for anyone to say you can or cannot donate blood. You need to contact your Cardiologist and ask him/her about this. If your Cardiologist feels that it is ok to donate blood, then he/she can put this in writing and you can take it to the blood bank. Also, remember that donating blood is not the only way to help others. You could consider volunteering or donating other things. It is very good that you want to help others and do not let anyone discourage you from doing this. Good luck.  (+ info)

TOE - Trans Oesophageal Echocardiogram.
You will be given a drug to sedate you. A tube will be passed down into your oesophagus. It is like the echocardiogram on the outside (ultrsound of your heart) but from the inside.

Hope this helps.  (+ info)
