[Ventricular septal defect: late spontaneous closure].
2008
: 25 patients who had a proven isolated small ventricular septal defect (VSD) when they were children were re-examined 3 to 19 years later, at the age of 20-21 years. Spontaneous closure was diagnosed if the murmur had disappeared and all other cardiological findings were normal. This was so in nine patients. Six of them had previously been followed to eight years or more with the definite diagnosis of VSD. In the three others who had only been followed to the age of 3-5 years the time of closure, whether early or late, could not be assessed.
