Doctor thank you so much for responses. I appreciate it very much. You are correct this what they told us is paramembranous vsd (sub aortic it say) and that is tricupid valve tissue covering they say. And they say aortic valve look perfect right now but they say chance of it damaging is very small but to keep watch on it as long as there is hole. But some doctor say this hole will probably not close and some doctor say yes it can. But maybe that size is too large to close up on its own?
But yes thank you, I was worrying about ekg finding prominent ventricular forces, sounded not good. Thanks doctor.
Dear Marcella,
Without evaluating your daughter, I cannot say for sure what is or will happen with her ventricular septal defect. However, if she is growing well and has no symptoms, and there is no chamber enlargement on echocardiography, it sounds like she is doing well. It is not as important for the defect to close as it is for it to just be small, or restrictive, in size so that less blood goes across it. The EKG findings are not nearly as important, as they can take a while to resolve.
I do not know where the VSD is, but by your description I am guessing that it is a perimembranous defect. This means that it is up by the aortic valve. I am hoping that the tissue that is closing it is from the tricuspid valve, and not from the aortic valve. If this is so, then she should do well. If it is from the aortic valve, this will need to be watched closely for aortic valve prolapse and leakage.
