Pulmonary Atresia - Intact Ventricular Septum
Pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum (or PA/IVS) is a congenital heart defect, which means babies are born with it. At Nemours Children's, we offer leading-edge capabilities to detect heart problems early, including in babies still in the womb. If your baby has PA/IVS, our board-certified, fellowship-trained pediatric cardiologists and heart surgeons are here to answer your questions and ease your concerns by providing the personalized, experienced care they need.
And since PA/IVS can range from mild to severe, Nemours Children's Cardiac Center offers the latest diagnostic and treatment options — including heart transplants. Our pediatric heart care teams offer patient families research-backed care, delivered with compassion.
