Subvalvular aortic stenosis typically manifests at a young age and rarely presents in adulthood. It may cause left ventricular outflow tract stenosis, which requires surgical treatment in severe cases. The coexistence of discrete subvalvular aortic stenosis and quadricuspid aortic valve is a highly unusual finding.

Objective: To analyze the results of surgical treatment of discrete subaortic stenosis and identify the main factors of left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) restenosis in long-term postoperative period.
Material And Methods: There were 87 surgical interventions in 63 patients with congenital subaortic stenosis between 2008 and 2023. Mean preoperative peak systolic LVOT pressure gradient was 72 mmHg (50-110 mmHg).

In this study, we propose a new method for bioprinting 3D Spheroids to study complex congenital heart disease known as discrete subaortic stenosis (DSS). The bioprinter allows us to manipulate the extrusion pressure to change the size of the spheroids, and the alginate porosity increases in size over time. The spheroids are composed of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs), and we demonstrated that pressure and time during the bioprinting process can modulate the diameter of the spheroids.
