The majority of treatment modes in the management of VSDs and AVSDs are safe and effective and prevent the development of PVOD and cardiac dysfunction. Keywords: Ventricular septal defect, atrioventricular septal defect, surgery, percutaneous treatment, hybrid procedure.
Ventricular septal defect (VSD) is a very common congenital heart defect in children, but due to spontaneous and surgical closure, it is less commonly encountered in adults. Studies have reported the long-term outcome of small VSDs that were not closed during childhood ( 1–3 ).
Complete closure of the shunt through the VSD eliminates the Venturi effect that pulls the aortic valve cusp into the defect. The prolapsing aortic valve leaflet may partially occlude the defect so that the VSD orifice appears small and amenable to direct suture.
14 lis 2006 · Abstract. Ventricular septal defects are the most common congenital heart defect. They vary greatly in location, clinical presentation, associated lesions, and natural history. The present article describes the clinical aspects of ventricular septal defects and current management strategies.

10 lis 2023 · Introduction. Ventricular septal defect (VSD) is a mechanical complication of acute myocardial infarction (MI) with a very high mortality, despite advances in surgical and circulatory support. The tremendous hemodynamic disturbance and the severely fragile myocardium render surgical repair a great challenge.
14 mar 2022 · A VSD can also occur as an acquired condition as a complication after acute myocardial infarction, following surgical or transcatheter aortic valve replacement, as a complication of septal myectomy for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, or by erosion from a strut of a mitral valve bioprosthesis, as discussed separately [4].
