AB  - Key  PointsPrenatal  diagnosis  of  aortic  stenosis  is  unreliable.Aortic  stenosis  should  be  suspected  whenever  there  is  asymmetry  of  the  cardiac  ventricles  including  either  left  ventricular  enlargement  or  left  ventricular  hypoplasia.Evaluation  with  serial  fetal  echocardiography  should  include  consideration  of  coarctation  of  the  aorta  and  the  possibility  of  progression  to  hypoplastic  left  heart  syndrome.In  utero  balloon  dilation  of  the  aortic  valve  has  been  described  but  is  of  questionable  value.While  pediatric  balloon  valvuloplasty  is  very  successful,  the  high  rate  of  reintervention  required  suggests  that  definitive  surgical  repair  leads  to  best  long-term  outcome.
