title: Congenital heart disease in the adult.
abstract: With improved medical and surgical care, more patients with congenital heart disease are now surviving to adulthood and presenting with previously unobserved problems. This review discusses the course of older operated and unoperated patients as far as physical and psychosocial problems and suggests methods of dealing with these previously unencountered clinical situations.
