Pathology
- Perimembranous VSD
- Infundibular RV obstruction
Hemodynamics
- RV pressure is less than LV pressure
- Shunt is always left to right
- Significant shunt may cause LV volume overload
Clinical features
- Significant left to right shunt may cause repeated chest infections
- PSM of VSD and MSM of infundibular PS
- Wide variable S2 split with soft P2 as in PS
- No PES as PS is not valvular
- RV left parasternal impulse
- Differentiation from pure PS is by amyl nitrite inhalation which increases the pulmonary MSM in pure PS while decreases that in VSD with PS
ECG
- RVH
- BVH
Chest X-ray
- RV enlarged
- MPA not prominent
- LV may be enlarged if significant left to right shunt
DD
-
Acyanotic TOF-
- Cyanosis on exertion
- No systolic thrill
- No biventricular enlargement
- Aortic override in echo
Management
Surgery in early childhood even if asymptomatic.
