This postulate is based upon the presence of characteristic murmurs in childhood which disappear with the growth and development of the patient.1-7 Convincing evidence of spontaneous functional closure of ventricular septal defects is ...
متن کاملIsolated ventricular septal defect in adults. Clinical and haemodynamic findings.
Clinical and haemodynamic findings were reviewed in 109 consecutive patients in whom an isolated ventricular septal defect was diagnosed after the age of 15 years (range 15-65 years). Most patients had no or minor cardiac symptoms. Based on the left to right shunt size and pulmonary pressure, 32 (29%) patients had large and 75 (69%) small ventricular septal defects, whereas in two (2%) patients...
متن کاملAn Experience of a Tertiary Center for 9 Years on Patients with Surgical and Percutaneous Closure of Atrial Septal Defects
