Efficacy and Safety of Percutaneous ASD Closure in Adults: Comparative Outcomes of Occluder Devices in a Single-Center Cohort.

ABSTRACT: Background: Atrial septal defect (ASD) is a prevalent congenital heart condition, resulting in left-to-right shunting. Untreated ASDs may be associated with complications, including right-sided heart failure, pulmonary hypertension, and atrial arrhythmias. Percutaneous ASD closure, performed with various occluder devices, has become the preferred approach for symptomatic patients with suitable anatomy, yet data on device-specific efficacy and safety profiles remain limited. Methods: This study was a retrospective, single-center analysis involving patients who underwent percutaneous ASD closure between January 2000 and February 2023. Data on patient characteristics, indications for the procedure, procedural details, and clinical outcomes were extracted from electronic medical
