  • 4 Types
    • Perimembranous VSD (80% of all VSD)
      • Adjacent to TV and AoV
    • Subarterial VSD (5-10 %, more common in Asian 30%)
      • Associated with probalpse of conronay sinus
    • Inlet VSD
      • associated with Down
    • Muscular VSD
      • Upto 20 %
      • Can be single or multiple 
  • Closure of VSD

Pulmonary Stenosis
  • Associated with Noonan Syndrome
  • Usually treated by Balloon valvotomy
Coarctation of Aorta
  • 6-8% of congenital disease
  • Turner syndrome association
  • Radiofemoral delay
  • Bisuspid valve in 50-80%
  • Aortopathy is seen
  • Aneurysm is seen as well (?aortic or intracranial)
Ebstein's Anomaly
  • Adhesion of septal and posterior TV 
  • More severe the anomaly, more earlier they will present 
ToF
  • Hallmark: Anterior and cephalic displacement of infundibular septum
  • ASD: if present Pentalogy of fallout 
Complete Transposition of the Great Arteries
