Suggest Treatment For Atrial Septal Defect And Pulmonary Stenosis In Children
Question: my daughter is almost two years old and she is born with asd and pulmonary stenosis.the doctors say they can't do anything as it's severe ..I want another opinion
Brief Answer:
Surgical modalities available
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on Health Care Magic.
I have gone through the attached reports. Let me remark that surgical options for closure of the ASD as well as surgical reconstruction of the pulmonary artery stenosis are available. But these procedures are undertaken only of there is sufficient clinical justification for the same. Besides, such a presentation is often related to certain syndromes and needs to be evaluated.
You would have to get in touch with a suitable centre for cardiovascular surgery where such a procedure may be undertaken.
Hope that helps.
