Abstract: Among the most prominent congenital heart disease (CHD) in humans includes Aortic Stenosis (AO), Patent Ductus Arteriosus (PDA), Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF), Atrial Septal Defect (ASD), Ventricle Septal Defect (VSD) etc. Of these, Atrial septal defect (ASD) is the most prevalent, appearing in adulthood and being identified from an early age. Although the exact etiology of CHD has not been determined by numerous researches, variables like consanguinity marriages among first cousins and alcoholism, smoking, medication usage during pregnancy have been linked to ASD. Anatomically, several gene mutations cause this to happen. Open cardiac surgery with CPB and transcatheter closure are among the surgical technique used. If necessary, long term care will be provided after the procedure. Thus, the content of this article provides a summary of the know-how regarding atrial septal defect.

Keywords: Congenital Heart Disease (CHD); Atrial Septal Defect; Pimum Defect; Secundum Defect; Patent Foramen Ovale (PFO); Coronary Sinus Defect; Cardiac Catheterization; Open Cardiac CPB (Cardiopulmonary Bypass) Surgery.
