Abstract:
We present the fifth "Jatene Lecture on Surgical Innovation" on Innovation in Congenital Heart Surgery, given at the Eighth Scientific Meeting of the World Society for Pediatric and Congenital Heart Surgery and Eighth World Congress of Pediatric Cardiology and Cardiac Surgery in Washington DC in 2023. We highlight what surgical innovation is and how innovation was accomplished in cardiac surgery and particularly in congenital heart surgery. A brief history of the development of congenital heart surgery across the world is summarized and we finally illustrate the South American contributions to congenital heart surgery, acknowledging the great innovations of Adib Jatene and Guillermo Kreutzer to our field.
