Abstract
Cardiac transplantation in adults with congenital cardiac disease is challenging, is fraught with adverse events, and requires meticulous care and teamwork for success. A surgeon specializing in congenital heart conditions may be best to handle the operative challenges, and an adult hospital with access to certain technology and consultant services may be best to handle the postoperative challenges in this difficult patient population.
