[Isolated left ventricular--right atrial shunt after blunt chest trauma (author's transl)]. 1978

E Kreuzer, and J Beyer

A case of left-ventricular-right-atrial septal defect secundary to blunt chest trauma is described. The etiology of this type of septal defect, e. g. congenital, following aortic and mitral valve replacement, endocarditis and trauma, is discussed. Early defect closure is recommended in the presence of significant shunt volume.
