ABSTRACT

Pediatric cardiology has shown an important development in the last 50 years, the first era was the knowledge of the anatomy of congenital heart defects, then it came the understanding of pathophysiology, the third era is therapeutic and is surgical, the first years with high mortality, but after successful cardiac management in infancy it is less than 10% in complex cardiac defects. Catheterization was useful as a diagnostic tool, nowadays it’s used therapeutically, and with good results and in some cases surgery and interventional catheterization are used together in the benefit of patients.
All the advances in this field resulted form multidisciplinary progresses, among which one may distinguish the better knowledge of pathology, improvement in pre, trans and post operative assessment and management and progress in operative management. Finally, the understanding of the heart of a child, based in a number of investigative methods to clarify cardiac development, and the molecular biology that will help us to understand the syndromatic associations.
