[Angiocardiographic diagnosis of membranous ventricular septal aneurysm in childhood].

Abstract

121 patients with isolated VSD were investigated by left ventriculography in long axial oblique projections at Xinhua hospital. In this group, 26 cases (21%) had conal septal defects, one (1%) had a muscular VSD and 94 (78%) membranous VSD. Among the 94 patients, 41 cases (44%) had membranous ventricular septal aneurysm. The angiocardiographic manifestations, pathology, associated left ventricular-right atrial shunt of membranous septal aneurysm and the differential diagnosis were discussed.
