ABSTRACT
Ostium secundum atrial septal defect is a common cardiac
malformation that, in most cases, manifests clinically in adulthood.
When it affects hemodynamics or cardiac function, surgical
correction is indicated, with options including percutaneous
resolution or open surgery. For the latter, new approaches have been
described as an alternative to conventional surgery, with reports of
better cosmetic results and shorter hospital stays.
