“…Gerbode defect is a rare type of ventricular septal defect that results in communication between the left ventricle (LV) and the right atrium (RA). Because the tricuspid valve (TV) attaches to the membranous septum more apically than that of the mitral valve, a congenital defect involving the atrioventricular portion of interventricular septum can cause an abnormal communication between the LV and RA [1,2]. The TV malformation, such as a perforation, cleft, widened commissural space, or abnormal chordae, when accompanied by a ventricular septal defect (VSD), also permits the LV to communicate with the RA [1].…”
