“…In the present study, the male-to-female ratio was found to be 1.5:1, which was consistent with the studies of Dakkak and Oliver in 2020 [13] and Singh et al in 2018 [14]. However, the age range was not described by Dakkak and Oliver [13] and Singh et al [14] who assessed subjects aged 0-18 years. In cases of VSD, male predominance was reported in the studies of Fyler et al in 1958 [15] and Frescura et al in 2016 [16].…”

BackgroundSymptoms of serious heart problems present at birth often appear during the first few days, weeks, or months of a child's life. Shunt formation between the left and right ventricle is a crucial component of the pathophysiology of ventral septal defects. ObjectivesWe aim to determine the most frequent types of ventricular septal defect (VSD) by echocardiography and whether there is any gender variation in the type of ventricular septal defect. Material and methodsA total of 100 children who were clinically suspected of or diagnosed with VSD at the age of 1-12 years were enrolled in this study. The septum of the atrioventricular (AV) canal, the muscular septum, and the parietal band of the distal conal septum were evaluated by color Doppler. Ventricular septal defect (VSD) size and kind are similarly impacted by the 2D echo mode. The size and site of the VSD, associated congenital anomaly, and significant morphological changes in ventricular cavities, gender discrimination, and relationspecific types of ventricular septal defect were observed. ResultsA total of 100 VSD children presented with clinical symptoms of fast breathing, retraction of the chest, cough, cyanosis, fever, difficulty during feeding, cyanotic spell, chest pain, and edema at 65%, 62%, 54%, 52%, 54%, 29%, 9%, 11%, and 4%, respectively. ConclusionEarly diagnosis is essential for effective medical care of diseases such as infective endocarditis (IE), which is present in some cases of VSD, and the avoidance of persistent pulmonary veno-occlusive disease (PVOD).

“…Although large-sized VSDs are highly symptomatic at early childhood and should be treated promptly to prevent Eisenmenger, approximately 90% of isolated small VSDs close spontaneously at an early age or rarely remain asymptomatic until older age. 8 In our case, late presentation could be due to small LV and RV orifices of defect. On the other hand, the amount and speed of blood flow is limited due to the friction of the tunnel wall, and this causes the amount of shunt to decrease.…”

“…Ventricular septal defects are the most common form of congenital heart disease in children and the second most common in adults. [4][5][6] VSDs have a wide range of appearances and can be located across all areas of the ventricular septum. These left-to-right shunts are created due to early fetal morphogenesis failure of the membranous, trabecular, infundibular, atrioventricular, and inlet areas of the ventricular septum.…”

“…9 When unable to close naturally, the resulting biventricular communications are classified into four types of VSDs: outlet, membranous, inlet, and trabecular. 5 There has been historical debate on how each VSD phenotype is categorized. The best practice consensus, from the International Society for Nomenclature of Pediatric and Congenital Heart Disease, created a system of combining both geographic system and border approach, with adjacent anatomical anatomy.…”

Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the existence of structural heart problems since the formation of the heart prebirth. There are different categories of CHD, all having their own unique frequency and severity characteristics. One type of CHD is a ventricular septal defect (VSD), more specifically outlet VSD. A VSD is the most common congenital heart defect; however, their presentation can be quite complex. Color and spectral Doppler transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) are valuable tools used in the diagnosis of VSDs. The often-challenging presentation of these defects requires sonographers to confirm their existence through the parasternal long-axis, parasternal short-axis, apical four chamber, apical three chamber, and apical five chamber scanning windows. Although VSDs are the most common congenital heart defect, their wide-ranging uniqueness and location along the interventricular septum (IVS) to assess all areas along the IVS on all exams, specifically those that demonstrate left-to-right shunting. The objective of this case report was to stress the importance of multi-window assessment during the sonographer’s interrogation of outlet VSDs, due to the potential implications on adjacent anatomy and the potential for surgical intervention.
