ASD is a communication between R. and L. atria. The ASD usually forms from?
incomplete closure of the foreman secundum AKA foramen oval or foramen primum- in formation of partition btwn 2 atria, the opening in the foramen secundum, the foreman oval, typically closes at birth and if it doesn't u get an ASD
