Ventricular Septal Defects With Near Systemic Pulmonary Pressures -AN Institutional Experience

ABSTRACT

Ventricular Septal Defects (VSD) with severe pulmonary hypertension (PHT) patients are the difficult ones to intervene as they carry increased risk of postoperative morbidity and mortality especially when pulmonary pressures are near to systemic pressures.We share our experience of 31 such cases managed by double flap technique and use of pulmonary vasodilators.
