Abstract
- Certain congenital cardiac defects may go undetected for several years due to lack of symptoms and signs.Ventricular septal defects can occur as part of more congenital cardiac malformations or as an isolate finding. The natural history of ventricular septal defects depends on the size of the defect and on the pulmonary resistance. We present a case of the chance finding of a ventricular septal defect in a 2-day-old newborn infant with an interatrial septal aneurysm.<br /> (Copyright © 2009 Elsevier Ireland Ltd.
