An atrial septal defect is a hole between the heart’s upper chambers. This hole can cause problems like shortness of breath and fatigue. The goal of surgery is to close the defect and improve heart function.
What to Expect During Treatment
At Centro Médico Teknon, doctors use minimally invasive techniques. This means smaller incisions and a faster recovery. The surgical approach involves either a mini-sternotomy or mini-thoracotomy.
Before surgery, you’ll have tests like an echocardiogram and pulmonary function tests. These tests help doctors plan the procedure. After the surgery, you will receive close monitoring. This includes control echocardiography, ECG, and medication if needed.
The typical hospital stay is 5–7 days. The package includes anesthesia, the cardiac surgery team, and intensive care. It does not include any additional, unspecified costs.
