| ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: The ventricular septal defects are the most common cnongenital heart disease, Ventricular septum composed of two parts:the memberanous septum is relatively small very thin stracture and themuscular septum ,Which is divided into three regions ; inlet ; trabecular and outlet portion. OBJECTIVE: To find out morphological classification of ventricular septal defects in Iraqi population. PATIENT AND METHOD : Two hundred isolated ventricular septal defect in 196 patients, were identified by two dimension echocardiography and Doppler color flow mapping. Age, Sex of patients and family history were studied. Cross section scan was obtained using a SSH-140A Toshiba machine. RESULTS: Ventricular septal defects were perimemberanous in 70%,inlet in 18%, Trabecular in9%, and outlet in 3%. Lage defects were identified in 21%, and eisenmengers cpmplex in 5%. CONCLUSION: Delay in referreal of patient with ventricular septal defects to our hospital usually resulted in delay institusion of appropriate management and increase risk of future surgery | ||
