* Evaluates the natural history of congenital heart lesions as a
background to finding out if and how much treatment has improved
outcomes
* Introduces and defines lesions, providing general information
about its frequency, familial or syndromic associations, and
associated congenital heart lesions
* Provides sections on pathological anatomy and physiology
– important in determining outcomes
* Includes results of surgery, both in terms of survival and also
in terms of event-free survival, that is, survival free of
reoperation, cardiac failure, arrhythmias, and other late
complications that are often seen
* Helps cardiologists and cardiac surgeons understand what is
likely to happen to patients with or without treatment, and which
forms of treatment currently in use provide the best outcomes to
date
