What is Atrial Septal Defect Surgery?
Atrial septal defect (ASD) surgery is a procedure to correct a hole in the wall (septum) between the heart’s upper chambers. This surgery, also known as atrial septal repair or interatrial septum surgery, may be done via open-heart surgery or minimally invasive techniques, depending on the size and location of the defect.

- Shortness of breath
