Preferred Label : Communication between left ventricle and right atrium;
ICD-11 definition : A deficiency of the atrioventricular component of the membranous septum permitting
shunting of blood from the left ventricle to the right atrium. This is an isolated
absence of the atrioventricular septum without other components that may be commonly
seen in association with a spectrum of disorders associated with atrioventricular
septal defects such as a common atrioventricular valve or interatrial or interventricuar
communications.The Gerbode defect may sometimes be confused with VSDs where a deficiency
of tricuspid valvar tissue permits ventriculo-atrial shunting subsequent to initial
interventricular shunting (Left ventricle to right ventricle to right atrium).;
