Echocardiogram of supracristal ventricular septal defect
Echocardiogram of supracristal ventricular septal defect
Transthoracic echocardiogram with two-dimensional parasternal long-axis view (left) and basal short-axis view (right) with color-flow Doppler demonstrating a supracristal ventricular septal defect (VSD). The left-to-right VSD shunt is noted in close proximity to the aortic valve (left) and pulmonic valve (right). Prolapse of the right aortic valve cusp into the VSD causes mild eccentric aortic regurgitation.
LV: left ventricle; LA: left atrium; RV: right ventricle; Ao: aorta.
