An adequate exposure of the VSD is crucial to avoid complications such as residual
ventricular septal defect, TR and complete heart block.
Perimembranous
ventricular septal defect involves the entiremembranous septum and adjacent structures and may have many variations.
Ventricular septal defect (VSD) was the commonest acyanotic CHD (58.14%) followed by atrial septal defect (19%), patent ductus arteriosus (9.3%), atrioventricualr septal defect (9.3%), aortic stenosis (7%) and co-arctation of the aorta (2.32%).

(2) The tight pulmonary artery band limits blood flow from the left ventricle into the pulmonary circulation to prevent development of pulmonary hypertension and to direct oxygenated blood from left ventricle to right ventricle through the large nonrestrictive
ventricular septal defect (VSD) and then from right ventricle to systemic circulation.

A 37-year-old, gravida 3, para 2 woman was referred for fetal echocardiography due to prenatal ultrasounds that showed a dichorionic/diamniotic twin gestation with the following anomalies: Twin A (female) had a thickened nuchal fold, absent nasal bone, small stomach, and complex CHD consisting of a
ventricular septal defect (VSD), atrial septal defect (ASD), pericardial effusion, deviated cardiac axis, and possible AVSD; Twin B (male) had all of the above noted as well as short long bones.
Large
ventricular septal defect, overriding aorta, right ventricular outflow tract obstruction and right ventricular hypertrophy are typical features of TOF2-4.
KEY WORDS: Post myocardial infarction;
ventricular septal defect; and repair.
Rohaan, who was suffering from a congenital heart disease called transposition of the great arteries with
ventricular septal defect (VSD) or a hole in the heart, underwent a high risk surgery called Arterial Switch Operation with VSD closure.
Tricuspid valve atresia, valvular pulmonary stenosis (55 mmHg) and inlet
ventricular septal defect (1.03 cm) were also present along with normally related great arteries.
