Hello, the doctor would like to answer the question: "How does a newborn with a 2mm interventricular septum affect health and how is it treated?" As follows:
Ventricular septal defect is a common congenital heart defect. The indication for treatment when the pathology affects hemodynamics. With a 2mm hole, children without symptoms (difficulty breathing, slow weight gain....) can be monitored without early intervention. It is best to go to a congenital heart specialist for examination, evaluation and advice on the best ventricular septal defect
