Abstract
To our knowledge it is the first epidemiological study regarding the frequency and type of congenital heart diseases found in Colombian children with Down's syndrome in a cardiovascular centre. The high frequency of ventricular septal defect and differential distribution of heart defects associated with Down's syndrome in the population differ to the data reported in other studies.
