Findings at Autopsy in a Patient with a Simple Ventricular Septal Rupture.
There is a discrete defect with a direct through-and-through communication across the septum. The perforation is at the same level on both sides of the septum: the left ventricular aspect of the interventricular septum (LVS), and the right ventricular aspect of the interventricular septum (RVS). MV denotes mitral valve.
