Text in this Example:
Endocarditis
Inflammation of the inside lining of the heart chambers and heart valves
Cyanotic defects
In these defects, blood pumped to the body contains less oxygen than normal. This causes a condition called cyanosis, a blue discoloration of the skin.
Septal defects
This defects let blood flow between the heart's right and left chambers.
Types of Congenital Defect
Hypoplastic left heart syndrome
The left side of the heart is underdeveloped
Obstruction defects
An obstruction is a narrowing that partly or completely blocks the flow of blood.
Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA)
This defect allows blood to mix between the pulmonary artery and the aorta
Congenital heart defects are problems with the heart’s structure that are present at birth. These defects can involve the interior walls of the heart, valves inside the heart, or the arteries and veins that carry blood to the heart or out to the body. Congenital heart defects change the normal flow of blood through the hear.

Subaortic stenosis
Bicuspid aortic valve
Coarctation of the aorta ("Coarct")
Aortic stenosis (AS)
Pulmonary stenosis (PS)
Atrioventricular (A-V) canal defect
Eisenmenger's complex
Ventricular septal defect (VSD)
Atrial septal defect (ASD)
Total anomalous pulmonary venous (P-V) connection
