This week we review the role that complications have on outcomes in the ACHD patient undergoing cardiac surgery. How commonly do complications occur and if they do occur, what impact do these have on ultimate outcomes? Are there strategies that can be employed to reduce complications amongst this fragile patient population? We discuss these issues and more with the senior author of this work, Dr. Oscar Benavidez who is the Director of Congenital Cardiology at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston, MA. doi: 10.1007/s00246-019-02103-5.
