Premature closure of foramen ovale results is :

A
Underdeveloped right atrium
B
Right ventricular hyperophy
C
Left ventricular hyperophy
D
Pulmonary stenosis
High-Yield Explanation
B i.e., Right ventricular hyperophyBefore bih, foramen ovale allows most of the oxygenated blood entering the right atrium from inferior vena cava to pass into left atrium & prevents the opposite direction flow because the septum primum closes against relatively rigid septum secundum. After bih foramen ovale closes functionally and approximately at 3 months of age valve fuses with the septum secundum forming oval fassa. Premature closure leads to right ventricular hyperophyQ
