Abstract

A review is given concerning the development of surgery for the congenital heart in recent years, or decades, respectively. Longterm results of operative and conservative treatment should be critically considered to avoid unsuccessful operations. Data from West Germany show that this type of surgery should not be done in all places where cardiac surgery is performed.
