Congenital Heart Disease – Atrial Septal Defect – Surgery sponsored by Dr.Mani Children Heart Foundation – August 2005
11 year old Sripriya has many reasons to be sad – but she’s a vivacious youngster with a scintillating smile.
Orphaned at birth, adopted by ‘Udavum Karangal’, a child care and relief organization, Sripriya was diagnosed with a hole in her heart – an Atrial Septal Defect (ASD) – causing increased blood flow into her lungs.
In an open heart operation sponsored by the Dr.Mani Children Heart Foundation, her defect was repaired successfully. She is now back in school, a normal student.
