Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Open heart surgery is advisable in children for congenital heart diseases.
It is having excellent prognosis and we can achieve near normal heart functions with open procedure than closed one.
Since your child is just 1.5 years old, better to go with best treatment and hence open surgery is advisable.
