Abstract
An advanced heart failure program can achieve satisfactory results for pediatric patients who are not suitable candidates for HTx. For some children, high-risk palliative surgery can result in better outcome than high-risk HTx. Mortality was related to the degree of heart failure at presentation rather than underlying heart disease.
