ABSTRACT
Traumatic ventricular septal rupture is a rare complication of blunt trauma to the chest and is lethal if unidentified. Although majority of these present early, late presentation can also occur. We describe a patient with severe head injury who deteriorated three weeks after trauma due to late development of ventricular septal rupture.
