Atrioventricular Canal Defect is an abnormality that causes the mixing of blood.The condition occurs when there's a hole between the heart's chambers and problems with the valves that regulate blood flow in the heart. Sometimes called endocardial cushion defect oratrioventricular septal defect, atrioventricular canal defect is present at birth (congenital).
