Q

VSD

  • ETIOLOGY
  • SYNDROMES
  • INDICATIONS FOR SURGERY
A

CONGENTIAL ; AMI
TOF ; AVSD ; PDA ; TRUNCUS ARTERIOSUS / TGA / PULMONARY ATRESIA OR STENOSIS
RISK OF DEVELOPING PHTN IN PREGNANCY
IN ADULTS, EITHER VSD IS SMALL OR THE PATIENT HAS ALREADY DEVELOPED EISENMENGER SYNDROME
THOSE WHO HAVE YET WILL BENEFIT FROM SURGERY IF: SIGNIFICANT SHUNT ; RECURRENT IE ; WORSENING AR 2’ CUSP PROLAPSE THROUGH VSD ; ACUTE VSD 2’ SEPTAL RUPTURE
DO NOT CLOSE IN EISENMENGER SYNDROME -> defect acts as an outlet for the RV to pump into the systemic circulation and maintain cardiac output at the cost of arterial desaturation
