An Unusual Mechanism of Closure of Muscular Ventricular Septal Defects
نویسندگان
چکیده
Ventricular septal defects (VSDs) are the most common congenital heart defects. Most of the small or moderate size (<6 mm) muscular VSDs close spontaneously within the first two years of life. The usual mechanism of spontaneous closure involves muscular tissue encroachment with superimposed fibrosis or primary fibrous tissue formation around the margins of the defect. We describe an unusual mechanism of spontaneous closure of a muscular VSD.

Closure of a muscular ventricular septal defect using the Amplatzer ventricular occluder.
Surgical closure of ventricular septal defect is safe, however, the inherent risks associated with cardiopulmonary bypass and the potential early and late postsurgical complications including complete heart block, arrhythmias, postpericardiotomy syndrome, and rare deaths have led physicians to prefer transcatheter occlusion technique for closure of such defects. The use of Amplatzer muscular ve...

Hybrid approach becomes a promising conception of an alternative treatment for muscular ventricular septal defects (VSD) closure in infants. In this paper we report epicardial echocardiography imaging that enabled successful hybrid procedure performed in premature infant referred for surgical correction of a large perimembraneous VSD with simultaneous perventricular approach for concomitant mus...

متن کاملDiminution and closure of large ventricular septal defects after pulmonary artery banding.
In a period of 15 years (1957-1972), 114 infants (51 males, 63 females) with the diagnosis of ventricular septal defect and congestive heart failure underwent pulmonary artery banding at The Children's Hospital Medical Center in Boston. A second study performed in 55 of these revealed the left-to-right shunt through the ventricular septal defect to be greatly diminished in seven and completely ...
