Interventricular AND Interauricular Communication Members: Types of Ventricular Septal Defect

An interventricular communication (CIV) is an opening in the wall between the two lower chambers (ventricles) of the heart. It is a congenital heart defect present at birth. There are several types of CIV including membranous, muscular, atrioventricular canal, and infundibular. The causes of CIV are generally unknown, but may involve genetic factors or environmental exposures during pregnancy. Treatments depend on the size of the opening and symptoms, and may include surgery to close the hole.
