Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Your mother is having atrial septal defect (ASD) with left to right shunt. Surgical correction of septal defect is needed in her case. But we should first find out the exact size and severity of this defect. For this consult cardiologist and get done detailed 2d echo study. If defect is more than 4 cm than consult cardiothoracic surgeon and discuss surgical repair of this defect. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wishing good health to your mother. Thanks.
