  2. Ventricular septal defect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ventricular_septal_defect

    Ventricular septal defect is usually symptomless at birth. It usually manifests a few weeks after birth. [citation needed] VSD is an acyanotic congenital heart defect, aka a left-to-right shunt, so there are no signs of cyanosis in the early stage. However, an uncorrected VSD can increase pulmonary resistance leading to the reversal of the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetralogy_of_Fallot

    Ventricular septal defect (VSD) A hole between the two bottom chambers (ventricles) of the heart. The defect is centered around the most superior aspect of the ventricular septum (the outlet septum), and in the majority of cases is single and large. In some cases, thickening of the septum (septal hypertrophy) can narrow the margins of the ...

  4. Pulmonary atresia with ventricular septal defect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulmonary_atresia_with...

    Heart sounds of a ventricular septal defect patient. The condition consists of atresia affecting the pulmonary valve and a hypoplastic right ventricular outflow tract. The ventricular septal defect doesn't impede the in and outflowing of blood in the ventricular septum, which helps it form during fetal life. [3] [5]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yasui_procedure

    If the ventricular septal defect is smaller than the pulmonary valve, the surgeon will enlarge the defect. The surgeon then uses a patch, commonly made of bovine (cow) pericardium or the child's own tissue, to create a tunnel between the ventricular septal defect and the pulmonary valve. This allows for blood to flow from the left ventricle to ...

    At that time, the procedure was used for patients who had TGA with a ventricular septal defect (VSD). By the late 2000s, the procedure was employed in situations where the right ventricle is bigger than the left ventricle and the left ventricle connects to the pulmonary artery instead of the aorta ; examples include double inlet left ventricle ...

  7. Arterial switch operation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arterial_switch_operation

    If there is a ventricular septal defect which has not yet been repaired, this is also fixed through the atrial incision and tricuspid valve, again using sutures for a small defect or a patch for a large defect. When the septal defects have been repaired and the atrial incision is closed, the patient is again placed on cardiopulmonary pass.
