Septal defects are among the most common congenital cardiac lesions encountered in both paediatric and adult cardiothoracic practice. In this detailed review, we discuss the anaesthetic management of atrial septal defect (ASD) and ventricular septal defect (VSD) with emphasis on haemodynamics, shunt physiology, and perioperative considerations.

Key topics covered:
• Pathophysiology of left-to-right shunts
• Differences between ASD and VSD
• Impact of shunt fraction on anaesthetic drug uptake
• Pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) and systemic vascular resistance (SVR) balance
• Risk of Eisenmenger syndrome
• Monitoring strategies including TEE
• Induction goals and ventilation strategies
• Cardiopulmonary bypass considerations
• Postoperative ICU management

This session is essential for anaesthesia residents, Fellowship trainees in cardiac anaesthesia, and clinicians preparing for theory and viva examinations.
