Common Cardiac Conditions - Dr. Gaurav Agrawal | Pediatric Cardiologist in Delhi

ASD Surgery in Delhi

Atrial Septal Defect (ASD) is a hole in the wall between the heart's two upper chambers. It allows blood to flow from the left atrium to the right atrium, increasing right-heart work over time.

VSD Surgery in Children in Delhi

Ventricular Septal Defect (VSD) is an opening in the muscular wall between the heart's lower pumping chambers. Larger VSDs cause heart failure and pulmonary hypertension if untreated.

Best PDA Surgery in Delhi

Patent Ductus Arteriosus (PDA) is a fetal blood vessel that fails to close after birth, creating an abnormal connection between the aorta and pulmonary artery.

Coarctation of Aorta Treatment in Delhi

Coarctation of the aorta is a narrowing in the aortic arch that obstructs blood flow to the lower body and causes upper-body hypertension.

Aortic Stenosis Treatment in Delhi

Aortic stenosis is narrowing of the aortic valve, obstructing blood flow from the left ventricle to the body. Severity determines management.

Pulmonary Stenosis

Pulmonary stenosis is narrowing of the pulmonary valve, obstructing blood flow from the right ventricle to the lungs.

Atrio-Ventricular Septal Defect (AVSD/AVCD)

Atrioventricular septal defect is a combined ASD, VSD and common AV valve abnormality, frequently seen in Down syndrome.

RSOV Treatment in Delhi

Ruptured Sinus of Valsalva creates a sudden left-to-right shunt with acute heart failure symptoms.

Eisenmenger Syndrome / Complex

Eisenmenger syndrome is severe pulmonary vascular disease caused by long-standing untreated left-to-right shunts, eventually reversing into right-to-left shunt with cyanosis.

Tetralogy of Fallot Treatment

Tetralogy of Fallot is a cyanotic heart defect combining VSD, overriding aorta, right ventricular outflow obstruction and right ventricular hypertrophy.

Transposition of Great Arteries (d-TGA)

d-TGA is a cyanotic heart defect where the great arteries arise from the wrong ventricles, requiring urgent neonatal intervention.

Total Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Connection Treatment in Delhi

TAPVC is a condition where the pulmonary veins drain into the systemic venous circulation rather than the left atrium, producing cyanosis in the newborn.

Truncus Arteriosus

Truncus arteriosus is a complex congenital defect where a single great vessel arises from the heart instead of separate aorta and pulmonary artery.

Tricuspid Atresia

Tricuspid atresia is absence of the tricuspid valve, leading to a single-ventricle physiology with cyanosis at birth.

Double Outlet Ventricle

Double outlet right (or left) ventricle is a complex defect where both great arteries arise from the same ventricle, with a wide spectrum of anatomy.

Congenitally Corrected Transposition of Great Vessels in Delhi

ccTGA is a rare condition with both atrioventricular and ventriculoarterial discordance, often presenting late with right ventricular failure or arrhythmia.

Ebstein's Anomaly

Ebstein's anomaly is downward displacement of the tricuspid valve into the right ventricle with tricuspid regurgitation and atrial enlargement.

Pulmonary Atresia (PA) Without VSD / Intact Septum

Pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum is a duct-dependent cyanotic heart disease with no outlet from the right ventricle.

Pulmonary Atresia (PA) with VSD

Pulmonary atresia with VSD is a severe form of tetralogy of Fallot with no antegrade pulmonary flow, often relying on MAPCAs (collaterals).

Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome

HLHS is a critical cyanotic heart defect with an underdeveloped left side of the heart, treated with staged single-ventricle palliation.

Stenosis of Pulmonary Artery Branches

Branch pulmonary artery stenosis narrows one or both branch PAs and may be congenital or post-surgical.

Patent Foramen Ovale (PFO)

PFO is a common small atrial-level opening present in many adults. Most are clinically silent but a minority are linked to paradoxical embolism.

AP Window Device Closure

Aorto-pulmonary window is an abnormal connection between the aorta and pulmonary artery just above the valves, causing large left-to-right shunt.

Vascular Rings

Vascular rings are abnormal aortic arch arrangements that encircle and compress the trachea and oesophagus, causing breathing and feeding difficulties.

Interrupted Aortic Arch (IAA)

Interrupted aortic arch is a discontinuity of the aortic arch, a duct-dependent neonatal emergency.

Bicuspid Aortic Valve Treatment

Bicuspid aortic valve is a common congenital valve with two leaflets instead of three, predisposing to stenosis, regurgitation and aortopathy.
