Doctor, can I ask, if my 3-year-old baby is born with a 4mm funnel ventricular septal defect, is it better to have a 2/4 aortic valve regurgitation or open surgery?

Answer
Hello! There are 3 methods to treat ventricular septal defect: conservative medical, surgical and instrumental intervention.
Depending on the examination results and the patient's condition, the doctor appoints the most appropriate and thorough treatment for the case of a 3-year-old child with a congenital heart defect.
You do not say where you are, if possible, you should choose a Hospital or Cardiology Center that has both Cardiovascular Surgery and Congenital Heart Intervention at a hospital under Vinmec Health System to best treat your child
