Correction of Congenital Heart Defects in Adults

Some congenital heart defects can persist or first appear in adulthood.

These conditions include:

• atrial septal defect
• ventricular septal defect
• valve abnormalities
• other congenital heart anomalies

Surgical correction aims to eliminate the defect and restore normal heart function.

After surgery, blood circulation improves, the strain on the heart is reduced, and the risk of serious complications decreases.
