Sažetak

The number of patients with adult congenital heart disease (ACHD) is constantly increasing. In the University Hospital Centre Zagreb, a service was established in 2015 to treat such patients, including surgical treatment. We analyzed the database of patients with ACHD in the period between 2009 and 2015 to determine the number of patients as well as the most common diagnoses and outcomes, which we then compared to centers outside Croatia that are more experienced in treating ACHD. At our center, 111 surgical procedures were performed on 108 patients in that period, with an even ratio between women and men and a mean age of 35. Reoperations accounted for 44% of the procedures. Mortality and morbidity were low (0.9%). Since the establishment of the Working Group for ACHD of the Croatian Cardiac Society, the number of surgically treated patients has grown.
