A case of isolated ventricular septal rupture caused by blunt chest trauma
Isolated traumatic rupture of the ventricular septum following blunt chest trauma is rare. We report the case of a patient who sustained blunt chest trauma in a motor vehicle collision. The isolated ventricular septal defect was not discovered by echocardiography until 12 days after accident. Perventricular closure of the defect was performed with occluder. The patient died from a complication ...
متن کاملTraumatic ventricular septal defect in a 4-year-old boy after blunt chest injury
Traumatic ventricular septal defect (VSD) resulting from blunt chest injury is a very rare event. The mechanisms of traumatic VSD have been of little concern to dateuntil now, but two dominant theories have been described. In one, the rupture occurs due to acute compression of the heart; in the other, it is due to myocardial infarction of the septum. The clinical symptoms and timing of presenta...
متن کاملUnusual localisation of a ventricular septal defect following blunt chest trauma.
A 64 year old man presented with a traumatic ventricular septal defect following blunt chest trauma 40 years before. Echocardiography and left ventriculography were helpful in locating the unusual septal defect, which was subpulmonary. The shunt was small, but the anomalous chronic overload led to right ventricular failure. The surgical correction was thus too late to improve right ventricular ...
متن کاملThe hybrid perventricular closure of apical muscular ventricular septal defect with Amplatzer duct occluder
PURPOSE Apical muscular ventricular septal defects (MVSDs), especially in small infants, can be difficult to manage using surgical and percutaneous closure. An intraoperative perventricular procedure is a good option for closing apical MVSDs in small children with or without associated cardiac anomalies. We evaluated the results of hybrid perventricular closure of apical MVSDs performed using a...
متن کاملVentricular septal necrosis after blunt chest trauma
Ventricular Septal Defect (VSD) after blunt chest trauma is a very rare traumatic affection. We report here a case of blunt chest injury-related VSD and pseudoaneurysm. A 30-year old male truck driver was referred from a trauma center to our hospital seven days after a blunt chest trauma and rib fracture. The patient had severe pulmonary edema and echocardiography showed large VSD. Several m...
