Background: Pediatric cardiac transplantation remains a surgical challenge as a variety of cardiac and vessel malformation are present in patients with congenital heart disease (CHD). Despite limited availability and acceptability of donor hearts, the number of heart transplantations remains on a stable level with improved survival and quality of life.
Observation: As treatment options for CHD continue to improve and the chances of survival increase, more adult CHD patients are listed for transplantation.
