The paper aims to compare outcomes of transcatheter versus surgical repair of atrial septal defects.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S1047951121004583_as2\"><jats:title>Methods:<\/jats:title><jats:p>A comprehensive electronic literature search was conducted. Primary studies were included if they compared both closure techniques. Primary outcomes included procedural success, mortality, and reintervention rate. Secondary outcomes included residual defect and mean hospital stay.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S1047951121004583_as3\"><jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title><jats:p>A total of 33 studies were included in meta-analysis. Mean total hospital stay was significantly shorter in the transcatheter cohort across both the adult (95% confidence interval, mean difference \u22124.05 (\u22124.78, \u22123.32) p &lt; 0.00001) and paediatric populations (95% confidence interval, mean difference \u22124.78 (\u22125.97, \u22123.60) p &lt; 0.00001). There were significantly fewer complications in the transcatheter group across both the adult (odds ratio 0.45, 95% confidence interval, [0.28, 0.72], p &lt; 0.00001) and paediatric cohorts (odds ratio 0.26, 95% confidence interval, [0.14, 0.49], p &lt; 0.00001). No significant difference in overall mortality was found between transcatheter versus surgical closure across the two groups, adult (odds ratio 0.76, 95% confidence interval, [0.40, 1.45], p = 0.41), paediatrics (odds ratio 0.62, 95% confidence interval, [0.21, 1.83], p = 0.39).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S1047951121004583_as4\"><jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title><jats:p>Both transcatheter and surgical approaches are safe and effective techniques for atrial septal defect closure. Our study has demonstrated the benefits of transcatheter closure in terms of lower complication rates and mean hospital stay.
