How to deal with congenital heart disease complicated with pulmonary hypertension

Patient's question:

What is congenital heart disease and pulmonary artery hypertension? What causes it? First of all, thank you.

Doctor's answer:

Generally speaking, only a very small number of types of congenital heart disease can naturally recover, many of which will worsen with age, and complications will gradually increase, with the condition gradually becoming more severe. The choice of the correct surgical timing is primarily determined by the severity of the congenital heart defect. Simple and mild deformities, such as atrial septal defects, isolated pulmonary stenosis, and small scar diameters, do not significantly interfere with hemodynamics and can be lifelong treated without any treatment.
