Congenital Heart Disease in Children: Causes, Symptoms and Risk Factors

Congenital Heart Disease in infants and children is an abnormality in the heart's anatomy that occurs very early in the baby's gestation during fetal development. They are called "congenital" because they originate from the moment the heart is formed inside the uterus, and they are born with those anomalies.
When a Congenital Heart Disease is diagnosed in pregnancy, it must be identified what type of abnormality it is, how this will affect the baby's life, if it has a definitive solution through surgery or if it only involves some treatment to soften its effects.
Thanks to the technological advances that allow us to diagnose from mild lesions in the baby's heart to more cardiac severe alterations from the first trimester of gestation through a Fetal Echocardiography.
This way, your OB/GYN Doctor, a Pediatric Cardiologist, and other specialists involved can be prepared for the time of birth in advance of possible complications that may arise due to your baby's condition.
