What are common congenital vascular or congenital heart disease in infants?

In: Heart Disease [Edit categories]

Answer:

I think the most common is a PFO, or patent foramen ovale. The doctor can hear a murmur. Most times this hole closes on its own within a few days, or the healthcare provider may prescribe a medication that helps the hole to close.

I'm not sure of any others.
