Complications from surgery may arise, but with improvements in technology, in surgical procedures and with more surgery being performed at a younger age, the risk of complications is continually being reduced.

The possible complications are related to the specific type of surgery being performed and they vary widely depending on the nature of the problem which requires surgery.

Your child's cardiologist and cardiac surgeon will discuss this subject with you prior to surgery.
