Large Congenital Ventricular Septal Defect: Surgical Closure at Sixty Years
1997
Large congenital ventricular septal defects have an unfavorable natural history and survival to 60 years of age with a large left-to-right shunt is very uncommon; surgical closure of such a defect in the elderly is even rarer. We report the case of a 60-year-old female who presented with a large left-to-right shunt across a congenital subaortic ventricular septal defect and underwent successful surgical closure.
