Detailed explanation-1: -This results in a range of defects that are included in this category of endocardial cushion defects. These include conditions such as atrioventricular canal (called AV canal), atrial septal defects (ASDs), ventricular septal defects (VSDs), and conditions involving the valves within the heart (the AV valves).
Detailed explanation-2: -A ventricular septal defect (VSD)-sometimes referred to as a hole in the heart-is a type of congenital heart defect. In a VSD, there is an abnormal opening in the wall between the main pumping chambers of the heart (the ventricles). VSDs are the most common congenital heart defect.
Detailed explanation-3: -When the ventral and dorsal endocardial cushions fail to fuse, a large opening in the center of the heart develops. This defect is called a persistent common atrioventricular canal.
Detailed explanation-4: -A ventricular septal defect (VSD) is a congenital heart defect where the wall (septum) between the two lower pumping chambers of the heart (the ventricles) does not fully form, leaving a hole between the two chambers.
