Heart and Heart-Lung Transplantation in Adult Congenital Heart Disease (ACHD): A 4-Year Single-Centre Experience

Due to impressive improvements in surgical treatment, patients with complex CHD have better survival and may develop end-stage heart failure. The number of patients with CHD that need heart (HT) or heart-lung transplantation (HLT) has been increasing in the last decades. The purpose of our study is (1) to review our experience in these patients and (2) to describe perioperative course and outcomes of ACHD patients who required HT or HLT in our institution in the last 4 years.
