Atrial or Ventricular Septal Defect (ASD or VSD)
A septal defect is an opening or hole in the septum, a muscular wall that divides the right from the left sides of the heart. This defect may be between the atrium, ventricles or both. Surgical repair is often necessary to alleviate the symptoms of shortness of breath or stroke.
