Ventricular septal defect treatment
This is a congenital opening between the chambers of the heart. Because of it, part of the oxygen-rich blood returns to the lungs, and the heart has to work harder. A small defect does not cause symptoms and can go away on its own.
With medium and large openings, closure surgery is required at an early age to avoid heart failure and brain hypoxia. In 1953, the first such operation was performed. In those days, the chest was opened, the heart was stopped, and the heart-lung machine was connected. Today, such procedures are carried out without incisions: through a regular injection through a artery, a special mesh is delivered to the heart, which is overgrown with heart tissue, and the defect closes. Contact us and learn more about the treatment of ventricular septal defect.
