ABSTRACT
The Spanish Society of Cardiovascular & Endovascular Surgery presents the 2012-2021 report of the activity in congenital cardiovascular surgery, based on a voluntary and anonymous registration involving most of Spanish centres. This article is complementary to the 2021 cardiovascular surgery annual report, and they are published together. In 2021, still marked by the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic, the decline in our 2020 congenital activity persists, compared with previous years. We included data from the previous 10 years, in order to obtain real information related to our activity with these relatively scarce pathologies. In the last decade, a total of 20,139 congenital heart surgeries were performed, accounting for 9.5% of all major surgery (congenital + acquired) performed in Spain during that period. Of these surgeries, 81.5% of them required extracorporeal circulation and 18.5% not. We highlight the interventions in neonates and adult patients, which mean respectively 18% and 21% of our whole activity and are a real challenge. The most prevalent congenital heart pathologies operated on were septal defects in cases requiring extracorporeal circulation, and ductus in patients without extracorporeal circulation. The presented data are adjusted to the basic Aristotle score of preoperative surgical risk. The observed mortality of surgeries with extracorporeal circulation was 3.07% (Aristotle 6.29), and without cardiopulmonary bypass 2.25% (Aristotle 4.82). Our national registry of surgical activity in congenital heart disease shows good results, allows us to compare ourselves within a national and international framework, design improvement strategies, set objectives and improve the quality of our actions.Copyright © 2023 Sociedad Espanola de Cirugia Cardiovascular y Endovascular
