All About Cardiovascular System and Disorders

Transcript of the video: Hemodynamic vise is the term given to compression of a vertical vein, which ascends to the brachiocephalic vein, between a bronchus and pulmonary artery. This produces a vicious cycle and that is why it is known as hemodynamic vise in certain types of congenital heart diseases which have a vertical vein.

Surgical Treatment of Tetralogy of Fallot and Sequelae

All About Cardiovascular System and Disorders

Transcript of video: Tetralogy of Fallot is one of the commonest cyanotic congenital heart diseases. One is ventricular septal defect, second is overriding aorta, third is pulmonary stenosis, usually right ventricular outflow tract stenosis and associated right ventricular hypertrophy. Right to left shunt is also visible.

Ebstein’s Anomaly of Tricuspid Valve

All About Cardiovascular System and Disorders

Transcript of the video: Ebstein’s Anomaly is one of the cyanotic congenital heart disease in which survival to adult life is common. The cyanosis in Ebstein’s anomaly, is usually not due to pulmonary hypertension, but because tricuspid regurgitation jet is directed across the atrial septal defect.
