We present a case report in which a conventional intervention for the correction of atrial septal defect resulted in an exploratory videolaparoscopy and exeresis of an ovarian cyst. Atrial septal defect is one of the primary congenital cardiopathies diagnosed in adults; ovarian cysts present a high prevalence and are frequently asymptomatic. The possible relation between atrial septal defect and ovarian cyst is debated. The femoral venous puncture techniques, guided by anatomic landmarks and by ultrasonography, are analyzed from the perspective of current scientific evidence.
