The ventricles are a single chamber at about four weeks of gestation but by eight weeks it has been divided into two. Failure of development of any part of the septum results in a defect. It may vary considerably in terms of size and haemodynamic conse...
متن کاملSmall Ventricular Septal Defect
T HE auscultatory and phonocardiographic characteristics of ventricular septal defects have been the subject of several studies,'-5 none of them dealing specifically with the features of small defects. The present study represents an attempt to define the phonocardiographic pattern of ventricular septal defect with a small left-to-right shunt and normal pulmonary artery pressure. It was hoped t...
