title: [Cardiac surgery at the pediatric surgery clinical department of the Pediatric Institute, Medical Academy, Poznań (author's transl)].
abstract: In the 18 months since the opening of a new Pediatric Surgery Clinical Department of the Pediatric Institute in Poznań, an artificial heart-lung apparatus for perfusions in children was developed in collaboration with the PONAR-WIEPOFAMA factory. During this time 40 cardiac operations were performed including 11 open heart procedures. Among 40 cases operated, 6 died; 3 after open heart operations: 1 tetralogy of Fallot, and 2 cases of VSD combined with PDA and pulmonic valve stenosis. 3 infants died after surgery undertaken in the presence of severe uncontrollable heart failure. The overall mortality was 15%.
