dc.description.abstractMultiple ventricular septal defects (VSD) are traditionally considered as surgical challenges and often ventriculotomy is needed. We report our experience with single patch closure of multiple VSDs in 4 children with a median weight was 5.6 kg. VSDs were closed via right atrium with a single Goretex patch with no operative death and short mean intensive care stay. To conclude, surgical approach to multiple VSDs is still a challenge, but a select approach to septate through right atrium adds to the surgical armamentarium to handle this difficult problem.en_US
