Big thank you to Dr. Detrano and the UCI flying Samaritans!
“My diagnosis is a restrictive membranous VSD. Restrictive means that it is small enough to restrict flow from left to right.
“Many if not most VSDs of her type close over a few years spontaneously. I recommended that she not have surgery but follow with yearly echoes and clinical exams.”
