Electronic supplementary material

Below are the links to the electronic supplementary material.

Supplementary material 1 (AVI 2906 kb). Video 1. Two-dimensional transthoracic echocardiography with color Doppler. Apical long-axis orientation clearly showing the fibromuscular ridge in the left ventricular outflow tract region with color flow turbulence across the ridge. LA =  left atrium, LV = left ventricle

Supplementary material 2 (AVI 406 kb). Video 2. Three-dimensional transthoracic echocardiography. The parasternal long-axis orientation has been rotated so that the fibromuscular ridge can be seen from the aortic side. The central opening in the fibromuscular ridge can be clearly delineated. LA = left atrium, LV = left ventricle

Supplementary material 3 (AVI 314 kb). Video 3. Three-dimensional transthoracic echocardiography. The parasternal long-axis orientation has been rotated so as to see the fibromuscular ridge from the left ventricular side. The central opening in the fibromuscular ridge can be clearly delineated, as can the relationship between the ridge and the anterior mitral leaflet. LV = left ventricle

Supplementary material 4 (AVI 190 kb). Video 4. Three-dimensional transthoracic echocardiography with color Doppler. The parasternal long-axis orientation has been rotated so that the ridge can be seen from the aortic side. The turbulence across the central opening in the subaortic ridge is clearly visible
