HEART DISORDERS: CONGENITAL OBSTRUCTIONS TO THE FREE-FLOW OF BLOOD
There are three causes of congenital obstructions; these can often be serious, and must be corrected urgently. They are:
1. Stenosed valves due to fusion of the cusps, especially in the pulmonary valve but also in the aortic and tricuspid valves. Congenital stenosis of the mitral valve is rare.
2. Underdevelopment of an area due to decreased flow of blood to the heart. This can be a major problem in the Tetralogy of Fallot.
3. Overgrowth of muscle tissue in the heart.
The correction of these conditions is often a complex procedure, involving the opening of the valves (which can be very tricky with the aortic valve, as any backflow can be fatal); enlarging underdeveloped areas with grafts from the patient's own tissues or with artificial materials such as Teflon, or even bypassing the area if it is very underdeveloped; and, in the event of an overgrowth, cutting away obstructing muscle bands. Techniques are improving all the time.
