Abstract
Children with congenital heart disease destined to become important symptomatic are often in serious difficulty prior to 1 year of age. In an attempt to improve the results of primary repair in infancy a number of groups have adopted surgical techniques using profound hypothermia, in order to provide a sufficient period of circulatory arrest in which to perform an accurate repair within a totally relaxed bloodless heart.
