Does age at the time of surgical repair of isolated atrial septal defect affect long-term prognosis?
Patients with surgically repaired isolated atrial septal defects
Surgical repair before the age of 25
Surgical repair at an older age
Long-term prognosis
Surgical repair of isolated atrial septal defects before age 25 yields an excellent long-term prognosis, whereas repair at an older age necessitates ongoing regular supervision.
Among patients with surgically repaired atrial septal defects, those operated on before the age of 25 have an excellent prognosis, but older patients require careful, regular supervision.
