Congenital tunnel‐shaped ventricular septal defect

Key Clinical Message We report a 47‐year‐old man who presented with right‐sided heart failure. Transthoracic echocardiography revealed a tunnel‐shaped communication (ventricular septal defect) between the left ventricle and the right ventricle with a significant left‐to‐right shunt. The VSD is conne...

description Key Clinical Message We report a 47‐year‐old man who presented with right‐sided heart failure. Transthoracic echocardiography revealed a tunnel‐shaped communication (ventricular septal defect) between the left ventricle and the right ventricle with a significant left‐to‐right shunt. The VSD is connected to the lateral wall of the right ventricle by a large tunnel.
