Abstract

In this issue of the Seminars, Dr. Giridhara and colleagues from India present a fascinating retrospective series of 161 patients who underwent subaortic (SAVSD) and subpulmonic (SPVSD) ventricular septal defect closure in the setting of varying degrees of aortic valve regurgitation (AR) and aortic valve cusp prolapse.1 As would be expected from anatomic relationships, their analysis shows that right coronary cusp (RCC) prolapse is significantly associated with SPVSD and that non-coronary cusp (NCC) prolapse with or without RCC prolapse is significantly associated with SAVSD.
