  2. Ventricular septal defect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ventricular_septal_defect

    Ventricular septal defect is usually symptomless at birth. It usually manifests a few weeks after birth. [citation needed] VSD is an acyanotic congenital heart defect, aka a left-to-right shunt, so there are no signs of cyanosis in the early stage. However, an uncorrected VSD can increase pulmonary resistance leading to the reversal of the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetralogy_of_Fallot

    Ventricular septal defect (VSD) A hole between the two bottom chambers (ventricles) of the heart. The defect is centered around the most superior aspect of the ventricular septum (the outlet septum), and in the majority of cases is single and large. In some cases, thickening of the septum (septal hypertrophy) can narrow the margins of the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Ventricular_septal_defect

    A ventricular septal defect is when this lower wall—the ventricular septum—has a gap in it after development. The septum is formed during development as this muscular ridge of tissue grows upward from the apex, or the tip, and then fuses with a thinner membranous region coming down from the endocardial cushions. Voila—two separate chambers.

  5. Atrioventricular septal defect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atrioventricular_septal_defect

    It is a very specific combination of 3 defects: 1) Atrial Septal Defect (ASD), a hole in the wall between the right and left atria; 2) Ventricular Septal Defect (VSD), a hole in the wall between the right and left ventricles; and 3) Abnormalities of the mitral and/or tricuspid valves. [1] [2]

  6. Right-to-left shunt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right-to-left_shunt

    Right ventricular hypertrophy (thickening of the muscular walls of the right ventricle, this is a result of the increased amount of work the heart has to do) Ventricular septal defect (a hole exists in the septum that divides the left and right ventricles)

  7. Congenital heart defect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Congenital_heart_defect

    Ventricular septal defect (VSD), atrial septal defect (ASD), and tetralogy of Fallot (ToF) are the most common congenital heart defects seen in the VACTERL association. [19] Less common defects in the association are persistent truncus arteriosus and transposition of the great arteries .

  8. Transposition of the great vessels - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transposition_of_the_great...

    Symptoms may appear at birth or after birth. The severity of symptoms depends on the type of TGV, and the type and size of other heart defects that may be present (ventricular septal defect, atrial septal defect, or patent ductus arteriosus). Most babies with TGA have blue skin color (cyanosis) in the first hours or days of their lives, since ...

  9. Eisenmenger syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eisenmenger_syndrome

    Eisenmenger syndrome or Eisenmenger's syndrome is defined as the process in which a long-standing left-to-right cardiac shunt caused by a congenital heart defect (typically by a ventricular septal defect, atrial septal defect, or less commonly, patent ductus arteriosus) causes pulmonary hypertension [1] [2] and eventual reversal of the shunt into a cyanotic right-to-left shunt.
