Congenital Defects Flashcards
A large VSD, overriding aorta, pulmonic stenosis, and RV hypertrophy
Tetralogy of Fallot
Associated with partial pulmonary venous drainage.
Sinus venosus atrial septal defect
Defect located in the muscular, central, apical regions.
Trabecular VSD
The most common atrial septal defect
Ostium secundum
Single arterial vessel from the heart. High VSD. Truncal vessel has 2-6 cusps
Truncus Arteriosus
Least common ASD
Sinus venosus atrial septal defect
The LV and MV are on the right and the RV and TV are on the left. Aorta is anterior and left of the pulmonary artery.
L-Loop, L-TGA
VSD >1cm referred to as non-restrictive
Large VSD
AV Canal septal defect puts patient at risk for
Infective endocarditis
Located anterior to membranous septum, above the trabecular septum and below the pulmonic valve.
Outlet VSD
When the ductus arteriosus doesn’t close after birth and blood flows from the aorta to the pulmonary artery
Patent ductus arteriosus
When the STVL is displaced distally towards the apex and the ATVL is elongated. Enlarged RA and small RV
Ebstein’s anomaly
Not considered a congenital defect. The reopening of the fossa ovalis during lifetime.
Patent foramen ovale
Located on the interatrial septum. Low, near the endocardial cushion.
Ostium primum atrial septal defect
Aorta attached to RV delivers desaturated blood to body. Pulmonary artery attached to LV delivers oxygenated blood to lungs.
Complete transposition of great vessels
Involves the membranous septum and usually extends into trabecular, inlet or outlet regions
Perimembranous VSD
VSD .5cm - 1cm
Moderate VSD
Ostium primum ASD with membranous VSD. 1 valve seen.
Complete AV canal defect or Complete AV septal defect
Ostium primum ASD with no membranous VSD. Two valves seen.
Partial AV Canal defect or Partial AV septal defect
Defect is located posterior and inferior beneath the septal TV leaflet.
Inlet VSD
