Late-diastolic forward flow is a well-described phenomenon detectable by Doppler echocardiography in the pulmonary trunk. It is supported by a restrictive right ventricular diastolic function and by a low end-diastolic pulmonary artery pressure. A similar phenomenon for the left ventricle and the aorta has not been described. We report a case of a preterm infant with aortic stenosis and endocardial fibroelastosis, who underwent balloon valvuloplasty. Restrictive left ventricular diastolic filling led to high left atrial pressure (27 mm Hg) and a very pathologic ratio of early-to-late peak velocities (2.6) for an infant of 29 weeks' gestation. In combination with a low diastolic aortic pressure (24 mm Hg) caused by moderate aortic regurgitation after intervention, a late-diastolic forward flow was detectable in the aorta during left atrial contraction with pulsed Doppler echocardiography.
