Brief Answer:
Normal prognosis

Prognosis in young patients post ASD closure with normal PC function is similar like other healthy individuals.
However but in this patient as eight sided chambers are severely dilated as per echo report so the chances of getting frequent chest infections are there.
Kind Regards
