    • Probably there was a Ventricular Septal Defect (VSD) that was closed by prolapse of aortic valve.
    • Family was counselled regarding the requirement of immediate ballooning of narrowed blood vessel (aorta, coarctation of aorta segment) leaving aortic valve for surgical palliation.
    • Aortic Valve Ballooning was deferred as it was prolapsed and while doing balloon dilatation, it may leak severely and lead to emergency like situation to the child.
    • After taking written consent, child was taken to cardiac cath lab for Ballooning of coarctation of aorta.
    • He underwent above mentioned procedure successfully with no complications.

    • She was kept on oral aspirin tablet for six months.
    • As per her translator, she is doing well in her home country.
