Atrioventricular canal defect, also known as AV canal defect, refers to a large hole in the center of the heart that prevents the separation of all four heart chambers. This condition requires surgical repair, which is usually performed during infancy and monitored for life.
Hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) is a rare, complex, serious form of congenital heart disease in which the left chamber of the heart is underdeveloped. A surgical approach requiring multiple operations is needed to redirect blood flow through the heart.
Tetralogy of Fallot (ToF) is a complex form of cyanotic congenital heart disease that changes the normal flow of blood through the heart, usually limiting the blood flow to the lungs. Treatment usually requires at least one open-heart surgery before the first year of life.
Transposition of the great arteries (TGA) occurs when a baby's aorta and pulmonary arteries are in the wrong position, causing oxygen-rich blood to go back to the lungs and oxygen-deprived blood to go to the body. All cases require surgery, usually within the first week of life.
