Outcomes of surgery for congenital heart defects in children with trisomy 13 or 18 were evaluated in 98 pts the Pediatric Cardiac Care Consortium 1982-2008. Hospital mortality was 28% and 13%, respectively. Median survival was 15 years and 16 years, primarily related to cardiac and respiratory causes.
