[Congenital heart disease in adults. Part I. Non-cyanotic heart diseases].
Over the last decades major advances have been made in the diagnosis and treatment of congenital heart disease. Therefore, many children with simple and complex congenital heart defects can now survive to adulthood and represent an expanding population. Most of them are not "cured" and need specialized follow-up. This two-part review presents the more common acyanotic and cyanotic congenital heart diseases that adult cardiologists are likely to face in their daily practice and discusses recent treatment advances.
