FECHAMENTO PERCUTÂNEO VERSUS CIRÚRGICO DA COMUNICAÇÃO ATRIAL DO TIPO OSTIUM SECUNDUM: UMA REVISÃO INTEGRATIVA

Atrial septal defect (ASD) represents about 5% to 10% of all diagnosed congenital heart diseases, it is more common in women, with a prevalence 1.5 3.5 women for each man. Changes the interatrial septum oval fossa are called ostium secundum communication, which correspond 75% ASD cases. Half defects resolved spontaneously while other half requires surgical percutaneous intervention. Although approach has been used many years, development techniques allowed transcatheter closure excellent results short and long terms. However, wide anatomical variation can compromise treatment. Therefore, an integrative review was carried out order compare pointing benefits complications both techniques. The showed that as effectiveness, safety mortality, equally comparable but complication rates reduced hospitalization treatment justifies its indication method choice secundum.
