Case description

Endoscopic ASD (Atrial Septal Defect) closure is a minimally invasive surgical procedure where endoscope is used and instruments inserted through small incisions in the chest to close a hole between the heart's upper chambers. This technique is performed, using small retractors to separate ribs and expose the heart. A patch or sutures are then used to close the defect, offering benefits like less discomfort and potentially faster recovery compared to traditional open-heart surgery.
