다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Patients over 15 years of age who have undergone a surgical correction of a congenital cardiac malformation during period of January 1958 through January 1986 have been reviewed. During this period there were 3957 congenital cardiac lesions consisting of 2712 acyanotic and 1245 cyanotic cases. Among them, a total of 725 adults [18.3%] with a variety of congenital heart lesions, 548 acyanotic group and 177 cyanotic group were operated on. 372 patients were male and 252 patients were female. There were 280 patients under 20 years of age, 206 between 20-24 years, 102 between 25-29 years, 48 between 30-34 and 89 over 35 years. The most common defects were atrial septal defect which accounted for 207 cases [28.6%] and other common anomalies were VSD [140 cases, 19.3%], TOF [136 cases, 18.6%], PDA [120 cases, 16.6%] and PS [33 cases, 4.6%] in order of incidence. Overall operative mortality for this series was 3.6% [1.8% of a cyanotic group and 9.0% of cyanotic group] compared with 2.8% of total cases of congenital heart disease [acyanotic group 1.1% and cyanotic group 6.5%]. This reviewed series reveals the incidence of operable congenital heart defects appearing in any adult life and demonstrates that surgical repair can be accomplished with a satisfactory low mortality rate.
