Patient's question:
Premature infant, diagnosed with heart disease, born 2 days ago, is there a cure? Will the child's atria also fuse when he grows up?Doctor's answer:
Congenital heart disease is the most common type of congenital malformation, accounting for approximately 28% of all congenital anomalies. It refers to anatomical abnormalities caused by the formation defects or developmental abnormalities of the heart and major blood vessels during embryonic development, or the failure to close the channels that should naturally close after birth (normal fetus).Guidance: The choice of treatment and the timing of surgery primarily depend on the extent and severity of the congenital heart defect. Simple and mild deformities, such as atrial septal defects and isolated pulmonary valve stenosis, if the defect diameter is small and has no significant impact on hemodynamics, do not require any treatment and can be lifelong treated without intervention.
