RESUMEN
Objectives To explore the feasibility ofdiagnosis of Perimembranous Ventricular Septal Defect with Right Aortic Valve Prolapse by ultrasonic echocardiography. Methods 131 VSD patients aged 1 to 22 years, weight 8.0 to 54.0 kg, underwent transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) and left ventricular angiography to show the diameter of VSD and the degree of AVP. Results Among 131 patients, 87 cases were diagnosed as VSD,14 as VSD with slight AVP, 12 as, VSD with middle AVP, and 18 as VSD with severe AVP by ultrasonic echocardiography respectively. After the left ventricular angiography and aortic root angiography , it proved that positive rate of VSD was 44.8%, positive rate of VSD with slight AVP was 42.86%, positive rate of VSD with middle AVP was 58.3%,and positive rate of VSD with severe AVP was 83.3%. Conclusion The transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) contributes to diagnosis of severe degree of AVP,while TTE evaluates the slight degree of AVP incorrectly enough. Left ventricular angiography and aortic root angiography are needed to realize the di-agnosis of AVP.
