| postinfarction ventricular septal defect | A defect developed in the ventricular septum resulting from rupture of an acute myocardial infarction. (05 Mar 2000) |
| salt-losing defect | Renal tubular abnormality causing loss of sodium in the urine. (05 Mar 2000) |
| septal defect, atrial | A hole in the septum, the wall, between the atria, the upper chambers of the heart. Commonly called an asd. Asds are a major class of heart deformity that is present at birth (congenital cardiac malformation). (12 Dec 1998) |
| septal defect, ventricular | A hole in the interventricular septum, the wall between the ventricles, the lower chambers of the heart. Commonly called a vsd. Vsds are a common class of heart deformity that is present at birth (congenital cardiac malformation). (12 Dec 1998) |
| neural tube defect | <neurology, paediatrics> Abnormal development during embryonic life of the neural tube producing congenital malformations of the nervous system due to closure failure of the neural tube. The structure gives rise to the central nervous system (the brain and spinal cord), and failure to close results in anencephaly (absence of the cranial vault and absence of most or all of the cerebral hemispheres of the brain) and spina bifida or meningomyelocele (open spina with exposure and protusion of the spinal cord). The risk of neuroal tube defects can be decreased by the mother taking folic acid during pregnancy. (04 Jul 1999) |

| oesophageal filling defect | <radiology> Tumour, carcinoma (oesophagus, stomach extending proximally), leiomyoma / leiomyosarcoma, polyp: fibrovascular, inflammatory, adenomatous, papilloma, carcinosarcoma, lymphoma, metastasis, oesophageal varix, extrinsic lesion (vascular impression, adenopathy, cyst), foreign body (12 Dec 1998) |
| osteoporotic marrow defect | Focal osteoporotic bone marrow defect of the jaw; a focal radiolucent defect composed of normal marrow. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Eisenmenger's defect | The combination of ventricular septal defect with pulmonary hypertension and consequent right-to-left shunt through the defect, with or without an associated overriding aorta. Synonym: Eisenmenger's defect, Eisenmenger's disease, Eisenmenger's tetralogy. (05 Mar 2000) |
| endocardial cushion defect | <radiology> Persistence of primitive atrioventricular canal and anomalies of AV valves associated with: Down syndrome: in 25% of Trisomy 21 an ECD is present; in 45% of ECD Trisomy 21 is present, asplenia/polysplenia types: complete (AV canal), partial findings: gooseneck deformity on angiogram, increased pulmonary vascularity, enlarged pulmonary artery, enlarged RV, LV, RA; normal LA (secondary to atrial septal defect) (12 Dec 1998) |
| enzyme defect | A disorder resulting from a deficiency (or functional abnormality) of an enzyme. In 1902 Archibald Garrod first attributed a disease to an enzyme defect: an inborn error of metabolism. Today, newborns are routinely screened for certain enzyme defects such as PKU (phenylketonuria) and galactosaemia, an error in the handling (metabolism) of the sugar galactose. (12 Dec 1998) |
| fibrous cortical defect | A common 1 to 3 cm defect in the cortex of a bone, most commonly the lower femoral shaft of a child, filled with fibrous tissue. Nonosteogenic or nonossifying fibroma by convention refers to lesions greater than 3 cm in diameter. See: nonossifying fibroma. Synonym: nonosteogenic fibroma. (05 Mar 2000) |
| uterine filling defect | <radiology> Technical, bubble, blood clot, mucoid material, congenital fold, pseudoadhesions / ridging -- folds long axis, neoplasm, submucosal leiomyoma, adenoma, endometrial carcinoma, pregnancy-related, pregnancy, molar pregnancy, retained conceptus, polyp, septated uterus, synechiae, IUD, iatrogenic (post-op) (12 Dec 1998) |
