| Objective | Compared with the rest of the transplanted patients, patients with CHD had a more cardiac surgeries prior to HT |
| p Value | <0.001 |
| Conclusion | Our patients with CHD and HT are younger and have less CVRF and more cardiac surgeries, which highlights that it is a subgroup with clear clinical differences in its comorbidity and pretransplantation assessment.Therefore, survival at 1-month follow-up is lower than the rest of the series and equalizes after the year of follow-up. This long-term survival reaffirms the possibility of HT in CHD despite the fact that its postoperative period is more difficult. |
