diagnosis encompasses a broad range of anomalies, including isolated defects and those …

Background While percutaneous device closure (PDC) is a first‐line therapy for isolated
muscular ventricular septal defects (mVSD), surgery is still the preferred approach for peri …

Background: Few prospective data are available regarding long-term outcomes after
surgical closure of a ventricular septal defect (VSD). Objectives: The objective of this study …

A ventricular septal defect (VSD) is a hole between the ventricles. They are characterized
into anatomic types based on their location relative to the components of the right ventricle …

Interventional closure of congenital ventricular septal defects (VSD) is recording a
continuous rise in acceptance. Complete atrioventricular block (cAVB) and residual shunting …

OBJECTIVES: Surgical closure of ventricular septal defects remains the most common
pediatric cardiac surgical procedure. No studies, however, have comprehensively analyzed …
