Muscular VSDs, representing 20% of isolated VSDs, are completely surrounded by muscle.
 Muscular VSDs can be multiple, and have been described as having a ____ _______ appearance.
"swiss-cheese"
A VSD is a defect in the ventricular septum, the wall dividing the left and right ventricles of the heart.

3 types:
Membranous VSD
Muscular VSD
Common ventricle
A large VSD is initially associated with a
3ct
-L R shunting of blood
-increased pulmonary blood flow
-pulmonary hypertension
VSD test

Echocardiogram
PTA is usually accompanied by a
membranous VSD

marked cyanosis.
L R shunting of blood

VSD
. About 35% of patients have DiGeorge syndrome.

Most of the time, this defect occurs spontaneously. Genetic disorders, and teratogens (viruses, metabolic imbalance, and industrial or pharmacological agents) have been associated as possible causes.

the 8 types of Embryologic Cardiac Defects
1.Common atrium:

2. Atrial septal defect (ASD):

3. Persistent common AV canal:

4. Tricuspid atresia
(hypoplastic right heart):

5.Ventricular septal defects (VSDs)

6. Persistent truncus arteriosus (PTA) :

7. Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF):

8. Transposition of the great arteries:
Ebstein's anomaly :
a heart defect in which the tricuspid valve is abnormally formed and placed lower than normal in the right ventricle.

The tricuspid valve normally has three “flaps” or leaflets. In Ebstein’s anomaly, one or two of the three leaflets are stuck to the wall of the heart and don’t move normally.

Failure of fusion of the tricuspid leaflets with the annulus fibrosus results in Ebstein's anomaly.

Recall: Annulus fibrosus cordis — fibrous ring of heart
Causes of VSD:
In most people, the cause isn’t known but genetic factors may play a role

VSDs are the most common congenital cardiac anomalies.
Tet spells is what

associated w/ what cardiac malformation =
- result from a rapid drop in the amount of oxygen in the blood.
-Toddlers or older children may instinctively squat when they are short of breath.
-Squatting increases blood flow to the lungs.

-Infrequently, babies with tetralogy of Fallot will suddenly develop deep blue skin, nails and lips after crying, feeding or upon awakening. These episodes are called "Tet spells
1.Common atrium:
complete failure of septum primum and septum secundum to develop.

-formation of one atrium.
2. Atrial septal defect (ASD):
congenital heart defect in which the IAS of atrias does not close completely.
►Ostium Secundum Atrial Septal Defect
-most common type of ASD.
......occurs in the center of the septum between the right and left atrium.

-A variant of this type of ASD is called a patent foramen ovale (PFO)

►Ostium Primum Atrial Septal Defect
- next most common
-located in the lower portion of the atrial septum.
-will have a mitral valve defect

►Sinus Venosus Atrial Septal Defect
-least common type of ASD
- upper portion of the atrial septum.
3. Persistent common AV canal:
aka = atrioventricular septal defect

(AVSD) or atrioventricular canal defect (AVCD),or "endocardial cushion defect", is characterized by a deficiency of the atrioventricular septum of the heart.

►It is caused by an abnormal or inadequate fusion of the superior and inferior endocardial cushions with the mid portion of the atrial septum and the muscular portion of the ventricular septum.
4. Tricuspid atresia
(hypoplastic right heart):
insufficient amount of AV
cushion tissue available
for the formation of the
tricuspid valve.
5.Ventricular septal defects (VSDs)
the wall dividing the left and right ventricles of the heart.


3 types:
=
Membranous VSD
Muscular VSD
Common ventricle
6. Persistent truncus arteriosus (PTA) :
-caused by abnormal neural crest cell migration such that there is only partial development of the AP septum.

-primitive truncus does not divide into the pulmonary artery and aorta.
7. Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF):
abnormal NCC migration
causing a skewed development of AP septum.

-pulmonary trunk = small whereas
-aorta = large diameter.

TOF is characterized by 4 classic malformations:
pulmonary stenosis
right ventricular hypertrophy,
overriding aorta
ventricular septal defect (VSD)
8. Transposition of the great arteries:
caused by
-abnormal neural crest cell migration
- nonspiral development of the AP septum.

2. Atrial septal defect
(ASD):
-Ostium Secundum Atrial Septal Defect variant

+
ASD is a congenital heart defect in which the IAS of atrias does not close completely.

►Ostium Secundum Atrial Septal Defect
is the most common type of ASD. It occurs in the center of the septum between the right and left atrium. A variant of this type of ASD is called a patent foramen ovale (PFO)
