Echocardiographic Pattern of Congenital Heart Diseases in Adolescent and Adult population of Western Rajasthan.

Conclusion: Prevalence of CHD in study cohort of age more than 12 years in Western Rajasthan, India was 7.7 per 1000 study population. Profile of CHDs in the present study was similar to that in published literature. We propose to do larger and targeted studies in this age group because many CHDs will become inoperable or even if operated will leave some or other cardiac dysfunction beyond adolescence.
