Key result

In 18 patients with ventricular septal defect and aortic insufficiency, cardiac catheterization and operative inspection most accurately indicated the presence of infundibular pulmonary stenosis.

Implication

May favor cath or surgical inspection over ECG to detect infundibular stenosis in VSD-AI; hypothesis-generating and requires confirmation.

Study Design

Type

Observational (n=18)

Structured PICO

P
Population
18 patients with ventricular septal defect and aortic insufficiency, 17 of whom underwent open-heart operations.
E
Exposure
Clinical and diagnostic evaluation (including cardiac catheterization, ECG, retrograde aortography, and open-heart surgery in 17 patients)

In patients with VSD and aortic insufficiency, the presence of concomitant infundibular pulmonary stenosis is best diagnosed via cardiac catheterization or direct surgical inspection rather than ECG.

Keck et al. (1963) conducted an observational in Ventricular septal defect and aortic insufficiency (n=18). Clinical observation and diagnostic evaluation was evaluated. In 18 patients with ventricular septal defect and aortic insufficiency, cardiac catheterization and operative inspection most accurately indicated the presence of infundibular pulmonary stenosis.
