Why the study?
Detachment of the septal leaflet of the tricuspid valve improves visualization for VSD closure, but may be linked to increased operative time, heart block, and tricuspid regurgitation.
Key points are not available for this paper at this time.
May raise heart block and TR risks during VSD repair; leaves open need for comparative outcome data.
Objective: Detachment of the septal leaflet of the tricuspid valve from the annulus has been used to improve visualization of ventricular septal defects (VSDs), but may be associated with increased operative time, heart block, and the development of tricuspid regurgitation (TR).
