Surgery for an unclosed foramen ovale usually results in a one-month recovery. Surgery for foramen ovale is usually performed by means of foramen ovale sealing, such as minimally invasive interventional surgery and open surgery. 1. Minimally invasive interventional surgery: For small defects, interventional therapy can be performed by pushing a new catheter into the atrial septum to cover the fixed edge of the defect. Generally, one day after the operation, you can get out of bed, and after all functions return to normal, you can be discharged from the hospital in 3~5 days after the operation, and you can basically return to normal in 10~15 days, and you can recover in one month in general. 2. Open surgery: If the atrial septal defect is large, open surgery can be considered, and generally one month after the operation can be recovered. If there are postoperative complications, such as postoperative secondary infection, or other discomfort, you need to consult a doctor in time, may affect the normal recovery time, if there is an infection, may not be able to recover for a month. Regular checkups are needed after surgery for patent foramen ovale, and you should seek medical attention as soon as possible if there are any uncomfortable symptoms.
